This is a summer run and walk through Yakima that raises money for the local Union Gospel Mission, supporting shelter, meals, and outreach for people experiencing homelessness. The heat is part of the point: the race is timed to the season when vulnerable people face the worst of it, and running in the warmth makes that concrete in a way a donation form does not.
