STRIDES FOR SHELTER 5K RUN/WALK
One of the only races funding Charlotte area homelessness and unmet housing needs
PRESENTED BY THE
CANOPY HOUSING FOUNDATION
MCALPINE CREEK PARK
OCTOBER 22, 2022
Proceeds from the 2022 Strides for Shelter 5K Run / Walk will benefit the Charlotte Rescue Mission. The Charlotte Rescue Mission serves those at the intersection of homelessness and addiction through housing, counseling, fitness, and educational programs.
Charlotte Rescue Mission is currently rebuilding their men’s program facility, as the current building is over 100 years old. Proceeds from the race will fund the creation of an admissions waiting area in the new facility that will provide a welcoming, inviting, and more private environment, which is something the current space lacks.
Strides for Shelter will also be collecting new men's athletic socks for the Charlotte Rescue Mission both at packet pick-up (Friday, 10/21 from 2-6 PM at Charlotte Running Company in Dilworth) and on race day. Any donation of new socks will definitely be appreciated.

Strides for Shelter will again be hosting a costume contest with prizes for best child and adult costumes. We will also be welcoming special guest, Homer the Dragon, the Mascot of the Charlotte Knights to hang out in our Kids Zone and help start the 1 mile Fun Run!
Thank you so much for your support of the Strides for Shelter 5K. Since the inception of the Strides for Shelter 5K in 2016, the Canopy Housing Foundation has returned $91,760 from the race proceeds to several worthy local beneficiaries who are all working to address the needs of the homeless.
As the sponsoring organization, the Canopy Housing Foundation is the charitable arm of the Canopy Realtor® Association. The Foundation works to create a community where all housing needs are met through advocacy, education, funding and leadership.
