To celebrate our 10th year of the James W. Foley Freedom Run and to motivate our runners, fundraisers, donors, sponsors, and volunteers, we invite you to join us for:
Foley Freedom Run Challenge Month!
What is the Foley Freedom Run Challenge Month?
The Foley Freedom Run Challenge Month is a fun contest taking place the entire month of September. Each week starting Monday, September 3rd, 2024, we will announce a specific weeklong challenge. The challenges will be for team captains, fundraisers, donors, and registered participants. At the end of each week, the James W. Foley Legacy Foundation will recognize an individual challenge winner. Each winner will receive a James W. Foley Freedom Run sweatshirt (Adult sizes X-Small – X- Large). Runners up will receive a copy of "American Mother", the heart-rending story of Diane Foley, who, in the course of confronting her son’s killer, gets to the elemental heart of violence and forgiveness.

Monday, September 2nd, 2024. The last challenge will be announced on Monday, September 23rd, 2024.
