RUN FOR CHILDREN OF HEROES – OTTAWA đđ
One run. Many cities. Thousands of children we are running for.
On October 25, 2026, Ottawa will join cities around the world for Run for Children of Heroes â an international charity initiative supporting Ukrainian children who have lost one or both parents because of the war.
More than 17,000 Ukrainian children are currently in the care of Children of Heroes Charity Fund. Funds raised through the international run will help provide psychological support to children and families in the Fund’s care.
You don’t need to be a professional runner. Run, walk, bring your family or build a team â everyone is welcome.
