Hope Music Festival 5K Run/Walk for Water

Join Clean Socks Hope and EDGE OUTREACH, as we join hands for one incredible day of hope, shoe collection, music and dance. In America, the average age for the homeless is 9 years old and the fastest growing population of homeless is single mothers with 2 children. Every 15 seconds, in places like Haiti; a child dies due to illnesses caused from contaminated drinking water. 26,000 people die each and every day.

Be a part of the Hope Music Festival 5K Run/Walk for Water and join the fight, change a life!

Our scenic course begins at the City of Jeffersonville RiverStage and winds along the banks of the Ohio, through the picturesque neighborhood’s streets with many of the homes approaching over a century in age. Run for the top trophy or just take a leisurely stroll and check out the fall bursts of color along the Jeffersonville waterfront.

After the race, stay for the music on the great lawn, visit with our vendors or browse the area shops and restaurants. Your race number will get you $2.00 off admission to the Hope Music Festival featuring Addison Road. While you’re at it, try your party moves as part of our “Dance Your Shoes Off,” video shoot in an effort to raise over 2000 pairs of shoes and socks for Edge Outreach and Clean Socks Hope!

Clean Socks Hope and EDGE OUTREACH are 501©(3) nonprofits dedicated to the community locally and abroad.
