Cold for a Cause 5k Run

Lace up, bundle up, and run with purpose at the Cold for a Cause 5K! Each winter, many in our community face the harsh reality of sleeping in the cold. This fun and family-friendly race invites runners and walkers alike to brave the chill and take a stand for warmth, hope, and change. Every step you take helps support the life-changing programs of Yakima Union Gospel Mission, providing shelter, meals, medical care, and pathways to stability for individuals experiencing homelessness. Whether you’re racing for your best time or strolling with friends in layers and scarves, your participation brings warmth where it’s needed most. Together, we can make sure no one has to face the cold alone. Join us to run, give, and make a difference!
