Race History and Information

Run for the Village has the mission of bringing together a community to support the ministry of Eden Children's Village. The first annual Run for the Village 5K walk and run took place on July 25, 2009. Thanks to the combined efforts of many businesses and individuals, this race is now on its 16th year!

A little about Eden...

Founded in 1998, Eden Ministries has grown from a heartfelt vision to a dynamic force for positive change. Their faith in Jesus Christ is the cornerstone of their mission, driving them to serve with love, compassion, and a commitment to biblical principles. Their primary focus is on providing a loving and secure home for orphans, rooted in the values and teachings of our Christian faith. Beyond orphan care, they actively engage in ministry initiatives, seeking to follow the example of Christ in every way. (*Taken from eden-ministries.org.)

We are excited to continue to join them in their mission through this event!  Click news@eden-ministries.org to connect!
