Description

Our Annual Bishop's 5k that aims to support those in need, rally the community, and have some fun! 

Whether you're a seasoned runner chasing a personal best or someone who just wants to enjoy a stroll with friends and family, everyone is welcome.

When we come together, we become a beacon of hope for our neighbors in need. Let’s make this year’s Bishop’s 5K a celebration of strength, service, and shared humanity.

#GenerosityFuelsMiracles! 

Where are the proceeds going?

All proceeds from the Bishop’s 5K directly support Catholic Charities of the Diocese of Wilmington, which has been serving our community with compassion and dignity for over 190 years. Your generosity FUELS:
  • Emergency food and shelter for individuals and families in crisis
  • Financial assistance for rent, utilities, and basic living expenses
  • Maternity care and housing through Bayard House
  • Affordable housing for low-income seniors
  • A diabetes prevention program to support healthier futures
  • Job training and financial literacy programs

...And so much more across Delaware and Maryland’s Eastern Shore!

Every step you take helps someone take a step toward stability, hope, and a brighter future. Together, we can make a lasting impact.
