About this race
The MIHEI Strides 5k Supporting Mothers will take place on August 22, 2026, at 355 Chestnut Hill Ave, Brighton, MA. Join us in our mission to make a difference.
Somewhere in Nigeria, a woman is pregnant and alone. She cannot afford antenatal care. She does not know where to go, or who to call. And without intervention, she may not survive her delivery.
MIHEI, the Maternal and Infant Health Equity Initiative, was founded on a simple but urgent belief: a mother's life should never be determined by her zip code, her income, or the road she lives on.
On August 22nd, we are running for her. We are walking for her. We are showing up, because she cannot. The MIHEI Strides for Mothers 5K brings together runners, walkers, and families at DCR's Chestnut Hill Reservation in Brighton, MA.
Every donation, no matter the size, goes directly to funding antenatal care, training birth attendants, and building technology that saves mothers' lives. Together, our strides add up to something transformative.
