I Move with Purpose! 5K

Atlanta Center for Self Sufficiency’s (ACSS) virtual I Move with Purpose! 5K run/walk raises money to aid Metro Atlanta’s most vulnerable populations, including those impacted by COVID-19, with connecting or reconnecting to the area’s workforce via ACSS's CareerWorks Workforce Development & Training Program. This very important event aligns with the organization's mission to empower financially vulnerable individuals in our community to become self-sufficient, sustainably-employed contributors to society. 

Participants will design and run their own 5K routes, completing their 5K anytime between 10/17/20 –10/25/20. Each race participant will also track individual results using their preferred run app. Once complete, in addition to uploading results on RunSignup, runners and walkers are asked to post a photo of themselves or their team along with a screenshot of race results on the ACSS Facebook page with the below hashtags.

• #isupportacss
• #istrengthenmyself
• #itransform

Each participant will receive a medal of participation through the mail. Note: Runners and walkers must upload their results to the RunSignup platform in order to receive their medal.

And yes... We realize that not everyone is a fan of 5K runs or walk, but have the heart and desire to make an impact. You can do so by clicking on the DONATE button at the top of this page.
