Night of Hope 5K, 1 Mile, and Family Fun Run
Join us for the 5th annual Night of Hope event on Saturday, August 22, 2026, at the Westerville North High School Cross Country Course and McCann Stadium.
The evening will feature a 5K Run/Walk, a 1 Mile Walk, and a Family Fun Run around the track. This event is dedicated to promoting mental health awareness and celebrating the lives of those we've lost to suicide.
Several Mental Health partners will be present, offering information on their services and resources. This year, we will award the Top Overall Male, Female, and Non-Binary finisher!
All proceeds from the event will directly support Westerville Education Challenge's initiatives in Westerville City Schools. These initiatives include Hope Squad (in all high schools & middle schools), RoX, WEB (Where Everyone Belongs), Twinkle's Care, student scholarships, and Parent Prep.
