Our Cause:

The Stepping for Life 5K Walk/Run is not just about fitness and fun; it's about supporting a cause that truly matters. All proceeds from this event will go toward the Safe Haven Baby Boxes initiative. Safe Haven Baby Boxes is dedicated to preventing the illegal abandonment of newborns by raising awareness, offering a 24-hour hotline for mothers in crisis, and providing Safe Haven Baby Boxes as a last-resort option for women who want to maintain complete anonymity while ensuring the safety of their newborns.

Race Awards:

We'll celebrate the achievements of our participants with awards and medals:

Overall Finishers: The top 3 male and female overall finishers will receive special awards.

Age Group Finishers: Medals will be awarded to the top 3 male and female finishers in the following age groups:

10-14, 15-19, 20-24, 25-29, 30-34, 35-39, 40-44, 45-49, 50-54, 55-59, 60-64, 65-69, 70 & over

Supporting Safe Haven Baby Boxes:

Safe Haven Baby Boxes provide a lifeline for mothers in crisis under Kentucky's Safe Haven Law. These specially designed safety devices are installed in the exterior walls of designated fire stations, EMS facilities, and hospitals. When a newborn is placed inside, the exterior door locks automatically, ensuring the baby's security. Medical staff can then safely retrieve the surrendered newborn from inside the designated building.

By participating in the Stepping for Life 5K Walk/Run, you are embarking on a memorable athletic journey and contributing to a cause that can save lives and offer hope to those in need.

So please mark your calendars, gather your friends and family, and let's take a step together for life. Register today, make a difference, and support the Safe Haven Baby Boxes mission. Together, we can create a brighter, safer future for newborns and their mothers. See you at the starting line!

About Meade-Breck Right To Life

The Meade-Breck Right To Life is a grassroots organization founded over 40 years ago, whose mission is to promote respect for the sanctity of all innocent life from conception to natural death. We accomplish this by legally educating legislators, the media, youth, voters, and all other members of the public to the truth of the dignity and worth of each human life and the issues pertaining to this truth.

Since conception, Meade-Breck Right To Life members have been actively involved in supporting women and their families, such as supporting Clarity Solutions, the pregnancy resource centers located in Radcliff and Elizabethtown. Now, more than ever, with the overturn of Roe v Wade in June of 2022, providing support to women and their families is important.

Our community efforts in 2023 included booths at the Breckinridge and Meade Counties fairs, partnering with Barr Signs to place the Safe Haven Law billboard on Hwy 1638, and continued support of Clarity Solutions.
