ANNUAL RACE TO END DOMESTIC
VIOLENCE
We regret to inform you that the Race to End Domestic Violence will not
be held in 2014.
The Annual Race to End
Domestic Violence in memory of MPO Peter Lavery and Officer Ciara
McDermott is a 5k Trail Run, and a 5k Trail Walk.
The Run seeks to raise awareness, provide support and remember
those affected by domestic violence. It is an opportunity for family,
friends and our communities to stand together in a fight to end
domestic violence. Domestic violence and abuse can happen to anyone,
regardless of gender, age, ethnic background or economic level. One
third of the monies raised by the Race to End Domestic Violence is
available to organizations that support victims of domestic
violence.
