Virtual 5K

Our 17th Annual 5K is going virtual once again in 2021! Sign up now to participate in our weeklong Virtual Event from September 10th – 19th.

Despite all of the challenges we face, this year’s race will be a great celebration of the Safe Passage/Camino Seguro community. EVERYONE can participate regardless of location. Simply register, run, submit results and celebrate! We also invite you to send pictures which may be shared on our Website and Facebook.

Visit our event page for more details (registration is not yet open for 2021).

Help spread the word about this event by sharing with your friends and family around the globe! This year’s proceeds will help support the science and technology curriculum that will benefit Safe Passage/Camino Seguro students for years to come. In the midst of this pandemic, it will support an expansion of our blended learning model that seeks to minimize and reverse the progress lost with the closure of the school.

The Safe Passage 5K also raises funds and awareness for Safe Passage students and families. For 16 years, friends and supporters have joined us for our 5K races in Maine and Boston. We’ve also had 5K races in areas of Vermont, the UK, Guatemala, and Denmark. Join us so that our locations can expand across the world. This year, we hope to see even greater diversity as everyone can Virtually participate and celebrate the grit, tenacity and beauty of our students and their families.
