SATURDAY, OCTOBER 4, 2025
10K, 5K, and 1K run/walk
In a city as vibrant as Ottawa, no one should be without a safe, affordable place to call home. Yet every day, more individuals and families are pushed to the margins by a growing housing crisis.
That’s why the Alliance to End Homelessness Ottawa, together with its members and partners, is launching the Race to End Homelessness — a powerful new 10K, 5K, and 1K run/walk event that aims to educate, engage, and unite the community around one critical goal: a future where everyone has a home.
Why We Run
Each step taken on October 4 will shine a spotlight on the urgent need for safe, affordable housing and the real stories behind the statistics. As a participant you will not only experience a powerful day of action and awareness — you’ll become part of the solution.
Included in your registration:
- A Race to End Homelessness t-shirt!
- A personalized race bib
- Professional timing from Sportstats
- Post-race snacks and beverages
- Free downloadable race photos
- A good feeling from knowing you're making a real difference!
Route: Downtown location pending approval from City of Ottawa.
The Alliance to End Homelessness Ottawa represents over 75 agencies working to end homelessness in our city. We coordinate, advocate and mobilize key players for a city-wide approach to ending homelessness.
Other communities are ending homelessness in Canada, we can too.
