about us
The Running on Faith Project was founded March 2022 and is on it’s way to becoming a registered non-profit organization within British Columbia. We work with shelters and recovery centers within the lower mainland but our dream is to have a national presence in Canada. Our mission is to support those experiencing temporary houselessness, to feel healthier and stronger through the power of exercise and community. To learn about how we move with meaning just see below.

Our Impact
The Running on Faith Project supports local shelters and recovery centers in helping to make a difference. Our running and walking programs have helped to improve the health and moods of our regular members. Helped to connect shelter staff and outreach workers through neutral fun running clubs and helped volunteers engage in the deeply rewarding experience of serving. By working together we have seen success stories of members moving forward.
