Our Mission

On June 19th, 2020, Peace Runners 773 Founder and President, Jackie Hoffman decided to organize a 5K within the Garfield Park community. A week later, over 20 participants gathered for a peaceful, fun morning of movement. To Jackie, this 5K uncovered a collective interest among residents for something that Garfield Park was missing: a safe and inclusive place to workout. With this goal in mind, Peace Runners 773 was born.

Peace Runners 773 is a non-profit organization that advocates for health equity. Our programming empowers, educates and brings awareness to holistic health and wellness through physical, mental and social wellbeing while creating safe spaces for movement in our underserved communities.

Your generous donation will help reach thousands of potential leaders and create opportunities that will improve our mental awareness and physical health. It will also help bring affordable resources to underserved and underprivileged black and brown communities. Peace Runners 773 will continue to advocate for the vision and restoration our community needs, the voice that no one hears, and the ear that listens to the needs of our community.
