Become A Champion
As a Holiday Hope Champion,
you’re not just joining a run, you’re joining a community making sure no one is left behind this holiday season. Every step you take helps to support people in your community through local Salvation Army programs and services, including warm meals, safe shelter, and hope for individuals and families facing hardship.
