Description

Run/Walk in person: Join us on Super Bowl Sunday, February 9th, for a flat 5K run/walk through New Haven's East Rock neighborhood. Race starts at 10am!

 

Virtual option: If you can't join us in-person, run, walk, or bike a 5k in your neighborhood, on your treadmill, or wherever you like. 

 

Go the extra mile for Refugees: Create an individual or team fundraiser to support IRIS' services to help immigrants with housing, healthcare, job placement, education, and more. We welcomed over 3,000 refugees, asylum seekers, and undocumented immigrants in 2024. Sign up to help us welcome more newcomers in 2025! 

 

Registration includes a white long-sleeve tech shirt or black short-sleeve shirt which will be given away on a first-come, first-serve basis. We want to see you rock your Run for Refugees gear across Connecticut and the country! Tag us in your photos and videos and we’ll feature you on social media.
