Arukah Project is a Santa Cruz based non-profit 501C-3 that works to restore, renew, and rebuild the lives of sex trafficking survivors in Santa Cruz County. Every week there is between 100-200 sex trafficking victims in Santa Cruz County and Natasha was one of those local victims.
Now a survivor, we chose her in honor of her immense courage and bravery. Natasha’s run for justice took her over 15 years. She fought for her voice to be heard, for people to believe her, and to see her trafficker brought to justice. Due to her unwavering determination, her trafficker was sentenced to 174 years in prison, preventing him from ever terrorizing another victim again.
We are excited to have the third annual Natasha’s 5k Run for Justice, presented by Arukah Project! This event is for all ages and will be held on Saturday, June 15, 2024 from 9:30 am - 2:30 pm with registration beginning at 8:30 am.
This will be a day of family fun for all! After the 5k run/walk through Skypark, attendees are welcome to enjoy the activities to follow, including food trucks, a beer and wine garden, face painting, bounce houses, and a concert by the Alison Sharino Band that starts at 10:30 am!
