Event Description

Dash 4 Dignity is working to put an end to modern-day slavery in our communities!  The Dash 4 Dignity 5K Run & 1K Freedom Walk at Heritage in Severn, MD is an annual charity event to raise awareness of human trafficking and human exploitation in Maryland, DC, Virginia and Delaware. The 2021 Dash 4 Dignity will be held as a virtual event throughout the month of April 2021. A tentative date mid to late April is being considered for a possible in-person community event depending on local guidelines for community gatherings. 

Dash 4 Dignity events include: 5K Run/Walk, 1K Freedom Walk, & Community Awareness Resources.  Participants will learn about the ways to keep people, especially children and youth, safe as well as how to recognize and report signs of exploitation. Proceeds from this year's event will be donated to these organizations: City of Refuge Baltimore and Drink at The Well, local outreaches in Maryland.
