Running is more than running. It's friendships and camaraderie. It's a ticket to better physical and mental health. It builds community and encourages volunteerism. The Chicago Area Runners Association (CARA) is on a mission to make sure everyone in the Chicagoland area has access to the benefits of running. Please consider making a gift to the 'Go Run for Everyone Initiative. Your investment will support CARA's 'Go Runs and Run Crews which aim to make running free and accessible for every neighborhood around Chicagoland, with a specific focus on Chicago's South and West sides.
