DNA 5K: Run for 'Hope', Stand for Justice
Join us in remembering all murder victims and help fight for their justice. Inspired by Carmen Hope VanHuss, and in partnership with CRIME STOPPERS OF CENTRAL INDIANA, this event aims to raise money for advanced DNA testing to uncover crucial answers and ensure the pursuit of justice continues for those who no longer have a voice.
With over 7000 cold cases in Indiana, DNA testing is critical in the pursuit of justice for these families. Substantial fundraising is needed to ensure this crucial testing is accessible in a timely manner to all who need it. Crime Stoppers of Central Indiana is a 501(c)3 Organization, making any donation tax deductible.
