🏃♂️ Event Overview
The 2024 Step-Up 5K Walk and Run is more than just a race—it’s a heartfelt mission to transform the lives of New Orleans' youth by equipping them with the tools they need to thrive in the face of life's challenges. In a city where many children are confronted daily with violence, educational gaps and mental health struggles, we are stepping up to offer them something truly powerful: the chance to develop a mindset that empowers them to face adversity with resilience and strength.
