Event Description

What: Janesville Aruna Run 2018. Hosted by the Aruna Project, a US  non-profit dedicated to freeing, empowering, and employing sexually enslaved women in India.

Why: Run or walk for a specific enslaved woman by name to help bring and sustain her freedom. You will select a specific woman whom we, our staff, and our partners know by name. You will receive email updates about her as you raise funds and run to set her free. Run for Khushboo. Run for Fathima. Run for Mamja. Run for so many others. Run for Their Freedom.

Impact: Because of our generous sponsors offsetting the cost of the event, 100% of the money raised from entry fees and donations will go directly to help free, empower, and employ the women we serve.

Events: We're offering a 5K and 1-mile run/walk option.

Times: 5K and 1-mile both start at 9:00 am. Registration opens at 8:00 am.

After-Party: Join us for a family fun day after you cross the finish line as our way of saying thank you! Festivities will include food for sale, games, face painting, and a bounce house.

Giveaways: Each Aruna Run participant will receive a t-shirt and an Athletic Drawstring Backpack made by women who are now freed, empowered, and employed! Each finisher will also receive a 2018 Aruna Run finisher medal.
