ABOUT THE JAMES W. FOLEY FREEDOM RUN/WALK

The James W. Foley Legacy Foundation invites you to share in Jim’s mission and legacy. They seek those who value moral courage and have a compassionate commitment to freedom for Americans taken hostage abroad, freedom of the press, protection and equity for independent conflict journalists and the basic human rights of all people.

Now in its fourth year, The Foley Freedom is both a traditional 5K Run/Walk held in Rochester NH and a “Virtual” Run/Walk, bringing the event to a national and worldwide audience. The James W. Foley Freedom Run/Walk allows for runners and walkers to participate from anywhere in the world! (When registering, please select “Local” for the Rochester, NH location or “Virtual” to register anywhere in the world).

Thanks to their amazing fundraisers last year, they RAISED NEARLY $100,000!
