Why We Run

Run in the Dark is more than a race. It is a way for our community to come together to support children and families right here in North Tarrant & Denton County.

Every registration, sponsorship, and donation helps Community Storehouse provide foundational resources that build a stronger, more successful future. Proceeds from this event help support programs such as:

  • Food assistance for local families
  • After-school tutoring and educational support
  • Weekend snack programs for children in local schools
  • Additional resources that help families navigate seasons of hardship

When you participate, you are helping bring hope, stability, and support to neighbors in our community.
