Dare to Care Dash

Lace up your running shoes and join us for the 31st Annual Dare to Care Dash, a family-friendly 5K with a powerful purpose. This year, St. Vincent de Paul – Cincinnati is proud to partner with the St. Martin District Council to amplify the impact of this meaningful race, supporting families in crisis across six Southern Ohio counties.

The race takes place Saturday, June 21 at 9 a.m., beginning and ending at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Church in Milford. Runners and walkers will enjoy a scenic, flat route through local neighborhoods and Miami Meadows Park—plus post-race snacks, door prizes, and a Patriotic Formation Flyover by the Vintage Warbirds to kick off the morning in style.

But more than a great community event, the Dash is a lifeline for neighbors facing homelessness. Last year alone, over 58,000 individuals in the St. Martin District’s service area lived below the poverty line. Proceeds from the race will directly help 50– 100 local families stay in their homes by providing emergency support for rent, utilities, and food.

This event is fully powered by volunteers—people like you, showing up to say, “We care.”

So whether you run, walk, cheer, or donate, know that every step makes a difference. Sign up today and help us turn hope into action.
