Transform1 is committed to rescuing underage children from sex trafficking in the Dominican Republic.
The vision behind Transform1
Of the estimated 100,000 sex workers in the country, nearly 60% are believed to have been forced into the industry as children. Transform1 exists to change that.
Details about the event
Join us on Saturday, October 10, at Stoney Creek High School for the Transform1 5K Run/Walk, a community event with a purpose far greater than crossing the finish line. Every step helps support Transform1, an organization dedicated to rescuing children from sex trafficking in the Dominican Republic and providing hope, healing, and a path toward lasting freedom.
Whether you're an experienced runner, a casual walker, or simply want to support an incredible cause, we'd love for you to join us. Bring your family, invite your friends, and be part of making a tangible difference in the lives of vulnerable children while showing the love of Christ through action.
We encourage each participant to try their best to raise $500. We encourage teams to try their best to raise $1,500 together. All proceeds go directly to Transform1.
