Watermelon 5k Family Fest

Join us for a powerful 5K walk/run that weaves through the heart of our community in solidarity with the Palestinian people. In a time when expressions of support and unity are more meaningful than ever, this event aims to bring together individuals to fill the space with the vibrant spirit and undying hope of the Palestinian cause.
Inspired by the global symbol of solidarity, watermelons, participants are encouraged to embrace this motif in their attire or through creative displays, echoing the voices of those who stand in support of Palestinians right to return. This family-friendly event is more than just a race; it's a statement of unity, a celebration of culture, and a stride towards understanding and peace. All are welcome to join, run, walk, and stand with us as we move forward together, embodying this journey of resilience demonstrated by the Palestinian people.

We aim to collect at least $100,000 through entry fees and donations.

We encourage you to participate in our initiative, whether by running, walking, attending in person, or offering remote support. Let's unite to make a significant impact!
