Run Club
Run Together. Grow Together. Make an Impact.
Discover a new and dynamic way to give back to your city. Association House Run Club is united by movement, grounded in community, driven by the desire to create meaningful change.
Creating Change In Your Community, and In Yourself
We believe movement and community go hand in hand—and together, they have the power to transform lives across Chicago. When you commit to raising $500 a year, you're not just showing up for a run. You're helping students cross the graduation stage, connecting children with permanent, loving families, and opening the door for individuals to begin healing from trauma.
Whether you're an experienced runner or just lacing up your sneakers for the first time, there's a place for you here.
Join us and help make a lasting change!

"Running keeps me grounded, and in many ways, that mirrors what Association House does—creating stability, purpose, and connection. I appreciate the full scope of what the Association House offers because no single service stands alone. The way their programs are linked creates a safety net that supports the whole person, just like running supports my mental, physical, and emotional well-being."
- Angela, Association House Runner
