Get ready for an inspiring and impactful day at the Mercy-USA x OMFRC 5K Run for Yemen, taking place on Sunday, May 18, 2025, at Bloomer Park in Rochester, Oakland. This community-driven event invites participants of all ages and fitness levels to join in a fun-filled 5K run/walk aimed at supporting families in urgent need in Yemen. With a goal to raise $10,000, every entry will help provide essential food baskets and water for displaced families, with just $150 sponsoring a family for a whole month.

The event kicks off at 12:30 PM and promises a lively atmosphere with a light lunch provided by Mercy-USA, a potluck of sides and desserts, engaging field games for kids, and scenic trails to enjoy. Participants will also receive finisher medals, t-shirts, and a chance to win fantastic prizes for top fundraisers and race winners. Whether you choose to run, walk, or cheer from the sidelines, your involvement in the 5K Run for Yemen makes a significant difference! Join us for a day of fitness, community spirit, and compassion as we come together to support families in need.
