Event overview
Hearts of Compassion 5K is organized by the Hearts of Compassion ministry of Colonial Heights Baptist Church. The event takes place on November 8, 2025, at Colonial Heights Baptist Church, 444 Northpark Drive, Ridgeland, MS. The event offers both live and virtual participation and includes a separate 1-Mile Fun Run. Packet pickup is available on November 7 and November 8. The event is connected to a silent auction that opens approximately one week before the race; proceeds support the Colonial Heights Adoption Fund.
Hearts of Compassion states its mission is to provide emotional, spiritual, and financial support for Christ-centered families called to adoption or foster care. The Adoption Fund provides grants and no-interest loans through a partnership with Lifesong for Orphans. The silent auction and donations support that fund; the page states 100% of donation and purchase amounts go directly to the Adoption Fund.
