The Haiti Outreach Ministry at St. Kateri Tekakwitha Catholic Church would like to invite you to run or walk again in our 16th “Run/Walk with the Son for Haiti 5K” scheduled for December 3, 2022.
Our goal is to raise tax-deductible funds to support the schools in our sister parish of St. Michel in Boucan –Carre. 100% of the monies raised –registration fees and donations –will go directly towards supporting those schools. Every $100 raised will cover the cost of a child’s education for a year. This includes tuition support, books, school supplies, uniforms and a daily hot meal –which for most students may be the only meal for the day.
For the last 22 years, our church, together with individuals have been involved in working with the people in this Haitian community to provide educational opportunities and health care. Each year the 5k brings together between 300-400 runners and walkers for this family fun event and gives hope through education to the children of St. Michel, Boucan-Carre, our twin parish in Haiti.
Sign up now and refer a friend, or many friends and get 15% off race registration
Your support is a gift of hope for Haiti’s future.

Excellent family/school run for great purpose.
This run has been consistently fun, well organized, and professionally timed and reported. The indoor atmosphere, restrooms, and wonderful food will not be available in 2020, but knowing the proceeds will go to support the schools in Haiti, will ensure I participate again this year. I encourage all of you to register and run your own course.
Worthy Cause
This was the first virtual Run for the Son, but my third virtual run in Running Man. Very safe course. The directions on uploading results were difficult to find but I finally fingers it out on the last day. Beat of luck to everyone who participated.
