Lamp for Haiti 5th Annual 5K Run & Walk!
RUN for Haiti!
We are thrilled to announce the Lamp for Haiti 5th Annual Run/Walk 5K, taking place on Sunday, May 3, 2026, at the beautiful Branch Brook Park in Newark, NJ! This exciting event welcomes runners, walkers, and community members of all ages and abilities to come together for a day of fun, fitness, and purpose. Whether you’re looking to challenge yourself on the course or simply enjoy the vibrant community atmosphere, there’s a place for everyone at the starting line.
We invite businesses—local, regional, and nationwide—to become proud sponsors of this uplifting event. Sponsoring the Lamp for Haiti 5K is a unique opportunity to showcase your brand to a diverse and engaged audience, build goodwill, and demonstrate your commitment to humanitarian values. Your support directly fuels our mission to provide vital medical care in underserved communities in Haiti.
Since our inaugural race, the Lamp for Haiti 5K has grown every year—last year we welcomed over 250 participants and raised critical funds for healthcare delivery in Haiti. This year, we aim to break new records in both participation and fundraising, strengthening the bonds between our local community and our friends in Haiti.
For twenty years, Lamp for Haiti has provided essential medical care in Haiti, relying solely on the generosity of donors and proceeds from community-driven events like the 5K Run/Walk. As a sponsor, your involvement empowers us to continue this critical work and to inspire others to join in, regardless of their location.
