What Your Gift Supports
Ahmaud Arbery found freedom and solace in running, a way to nurture his mental wellness and embrace life’s challenges. Tragically, on February 23, 2020, his freedom was unjustly taken. In his honor, we remain steadfast in our mission to ensure everyone can run safely and freely. This year, we invite you to join the 2024 Run with Maud 5K, a global event celebrating Ahmaud’s life and the values he cherished. Our goal is to raise $250,000, a symbolic tribute to Ahmaud’s 25 years of life, to further our commitment to justice, safety, and community. Your donation will help us reach this goal and keep Ahmaud’s legacy alive, empowering change and ensuring that every stride counts toward a better, safer world.
