The 45th Annual Philadelphia Bar Association 5K Run/Walk to benefit the Support Center for Child Advocates will take place at Fairmount Park on May 19, 2024 beginning at 7:30 AM Eastern when Bib Pickup opens.

Since the first Bar Run in 1979, this event has benefited the Support Center for Child Advocates (Child Advocates) and has placed a spotlight on the Philadelphia Bar Association’s commitment to the young people of the region. As one of the most successful volunteer models in the country, Child Advocates serves close to 1,000 clients each year, providing legal assistance and social service advocacy for children and youth who have experienced abuse and severe neglect.

The Bar Run is a family friendly day that includes the 5K Run Individual Competition, 5K Run Team Competition, Philadelphia Bar Association Member Competition, and the Buchanan Kids Dash!
