Join us for our inaugural 5K Run/Walk in beautiful Anacostia Park! This family-friendly event brings together fitness, fun, and community while supporting Academy of Hope’s mission to empower adult learners in DC through education, career training, and life-changing support services. More than just a run, the AoH 5K is a celebration of possibility. Every step you take helps adults in our community rewrite their stories through learning and growth.
Education is a public good. It uplifts entire communities, strengthens our workforce, and gives every person the chance to reach their potential. The funds raised from this event support programs that help adult learners build literacy skills, earn high-school credentials, and pursue new career pathways.
When you run, walk, or cheer from the sidelines, you’re part of something bigger: a community effort to make lifelong learning accessible to all.
