Homeboy Run/Walk
The Homeboy 5K Run/Walk is an annual event held in historic Downtown Los Angeles, starting at Homeboy Industries located at 130 W Bruno St. This vibrant community event attracts over 5,000 participants including runners, walkers, volunteers, and families. The 5K course begins outside the Chinatown headquarters and concludes with a lively street celebration featuring local artists, partners, and vendors.
In addition to the main 5K, there is a Kids Run for ages 2-12 and a Puppy Fades Doggy Dash, a half-mile race for dogs and their owners. The event supports Homeboy Industries' mission to aid formerly gang-involved and previously incarcerated individuals through training and support programs.
