Mother's Day Run/Walk for Shelter

The 34th Annual Mother’s Day Run/Walk for Shelter – featuring a 10K Run, a 5K Run/Walk, and 1K Kids’ Fun Run – brings together over 700 runners and walkers, 100 volunteers, 100 businesses, and the City of Watsonville at Ramsay Park in support of Pajaro Valley Shelter Services (PVSS) and ending family homelessness in our local community. PVSS empowers homeless women, children, and families to move beyond homelessness and into self-sufficiency. Women, children, and families end the causes and cycles of homelessness while in PVSS' high-impact housing and empowerment programs. Families experiencing homelessness develop the skills and attitudes necessary to move on to stable housing and improved personal and economic self-sufficiency.
For the first time ever, the races will be chip-timed, and 10K runners will enjoy an out-and-back loop! Join the excitement: together, we can OUTRUN family homelessness!
