Big Day of Giving

Richard's Run
2024-07-26 13:00 - 15:00 | California
We joined survivor Rachel to honor her brother Richard by launching 𝘙𝘪𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘳𝘥’𝘴 𝘙𝘶𝘯 – 𝘙𝘶𝘯𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘴𝘦 𝘸𝘩𝘰 𝘯𝘰 𝘭𝘰𝘯𝘨𝘦𝘳 𝘤𝘢𝘯.

Richard was a victim of domestic violence homicide at two years old. Rachel’s mission through Richard’s Run is to bring awareness to domestic violence homicide, provide others a platform to remember and educate on behalf of their loved ones, and honor traumas endured.

Richard’s Run can mean something different for each participant, but the mission is the same – together we can create something impactful out of our grief and shared experiences. Learn more at placer.ca.gov/RichardsRun
