Social Distance 5K for Project Home
Date: Monday June 29 to Saturday July 11. You pick the day and the place to run!
Project Home is a grassroots organization that helps asylum seekers move from detention centers into our communities and homes as they await their asylum hearings. We will welcome at least five asylum-seeking families or individuals in a given period of time, providing not only housing but legal, medical, educational and any other necessary support. We are creating a community- based model in the Monadnock Region and working with other organizations to develop a coalition that supports this work. This will serve as the foundation for replicating this model across New Hampshire, and eventually across the nation. Project Home is a non-profit 501c3 charity.

1. Log your 5k ANYWHERE on a fitness app e.g., Strava, Map My Run, RunKeeper) or distance watch. TIME DOESN'T MATTER, HAVING FUN DOES!
