Dozens of charities benefit from DuPage Human Race

The DuPage Human Race returns for the 6th year on May 6, 2017. The 5K run and fitness walk kicks off the Do GOOD DuPage initiative, when engages people countywide to do one or two good things to give back to the community. The DuPage Human Race benefits 71 nonprofit organizations. The goal is to raise over $100,000. Organizers are also collecting items for charity organizations: such as canned food items, pet food and blankets, gently used baby items and more.
