The HPWC Orphan Run 4 Hope is a charity race day at Bethpage State Park focused on fundraising for orphan children. Runners can select a 5K, half marathon, or full marathon, while walkers and families have a Family Fun Walk and a 1K walk. The event is organized by PLC and asks participants to turn their race entry into a fundraising effort, with friends, relatives, and co-workers invited to sponsor them. The race prioritizes offering people several ways to participate, from full-marathon runners to non-runners starting from scratch. PLC offers a “Couch to Race Day” program for individuals seeking assistance in preparation, and registered participants receive a personal webpage link for donations. The funds support care for over 6,700 orphan children through orphanages in 25 countries, including India, Kenya, Mexico, Thailand, Haiti, Nepal, Uganda, Ukraine, and Paraguay, with a stated objective of providing a safe Christian upbringing.
