Creation Care 5k (Virtual)

This is a virtual – run/walk/roll anywhere you want. Now is the time for Creation Care. Whether you run, walk, or roll, you can join in a virtual 5k race to support Creation Care. Everyone who participates gets a Kairos Call to Action T-shirt. The run takes place between Sept. 1 and Sept. 30. Make the event even better by recruiting friends to run it with you (i.e., set up an in-person run/walk/roll with your friends). We encourage everyone to submit their results and a photo by Sept. 27. Photos and result submissions are not required, but it is a great way to engage with other participants and celebrate your achievement. When posting about your adventure on social media, we encourage you to use #CreationCareRun. We will mail race packets starting in early August. Consider recruiting a team from your congregation or friend group to join you in the 5k. All proceeds support seed grants to congregations for creation care demonstration projects such as solar panel installations, energy efficiency improvements, and pollinator gardens. From 2020 to 2025, the Kairos Call to Action Team awarded $44,545 in 49 grants to 37 congregations in 29 communities across Wisconsin.
