Run for Charity
Running Together. Giving Back. Lighting the Way.
At Run the Night, our mission is simple: to bring communities together through the joy of running and the power of giving.
We believe in the strength of community and the unique energy of running — especially when it supports something greater than ourselves. That’s why we created a five-mile night run experience designed to unite people of all ages and abilities, lighting up cities while supporting meaningful local causes.
Every step taken is more than just a run — it’s a contribution. Whether it’s helping a child who needs support, giving hope to families, or bringing communities together around a shared cause, each stride makes a difference.
We are proud to partner with organisations such as the Little Blue Heroes Foundation, and we remain committed to growing our impact — city by city, night by night.
Our Charity Partner
The Little Blue Heroes Foundation, established in 2017, is a registered not-for-profit charity led voluntarily by serving and retired Garda members, alongside dedicated community supporters. The charity employs a single staff member to manage its day-to-day operations.
Importantly, Little Blue Heroes is fully independent of An Garda Síochána. It receives no state funding and relies entirely on donations and fundraising efforts to continue its vital work.
