Lillian Smith "Race To End Abuse" 5K/Walk Events
The Lillian Smith "Race To End Abuse" is a series of USATF-sanctioned 5K races & 1K family fitness walks which:
- Increase awareness of the battle against domestic, dating, child and pet abuse
- Raise funds for advertising/public relations educational campaigns in media, schools and communities, plus for victim and abuser assistance
- Celebrate survivorship of abuse
- Remember and honor the millions of victims who have either been injured or lost their lives
This is the only event devoted exclusively to raising awareness and funds for campaigns in media, schools and communities to prevent and end abuse across Texas and the nation. Other races or walks related to this cause raise money for the operation of women's shelters or related non-profit agencies.
