The Little Village Rotary Club hosts the Race for Peace, a community Run/Walk event aimed at promoting anti-violence by supporting youth programs in Chicago’s Little Village and its surrounding areas. Proceeds support renewable grants, youth development, and job training. Runners can choose between competitive and non-competitive in-person events, with cash prizes awarded to the top three male and female competitors. Participants receive a finisher medallion and event t-shirt. The race features chip-timing on a certified course, encouraging participation and community engagement for a safer and more supportive environment.
