The Sole Hope 5K run and health walk will be held in Salisbury, NC on Saturday, June 3, 2017 at 9 am, at Salisbury Community Park (935 Hurley School Rd, Salisbury, NC 28147).  This is the inaugural year for this 5K race, which is already anticipated in becoming an annual event.  It is designed to appeal to walkers, joggers, casual runners and competitive runners.  Appealing to each level of fitness is a great representation of the sport.  There will also be a FREE 1/2 mile fun run for the kiddos, so bring the whole family!

WHO IS SOLE HOPE?
This race seeks to have both a positive economic and awareness impact for Sole Hope, which seeks to offer hope, healthier lives, and freedom from foot-related diseases through education, jobs and medical relief in Uganda.  It all started with an encounter with a YouTube video–a video that broke the Founder of Sole Hope’s heart and led them to Uganda.  Along the way, they realized they could both help Ugandan children live lives free from jiggers, and they could help Ugandan men and women by teaching them a trade—how to make shoes.  And so they began.  The organization now has a plan, a vision, and core values.  It also has an amazing team of high-energy, crazy folks that love God, people, fun, and making an impact one vulnerable person at a time.  For more information, to donate, purchase awesome Sole Hope swag, or just to connect via Facebook or Instagram, head over to www.solehope.org.
