Run for Justice

Over the last eight years, Team LAS runners have raced through the five boroughs of New York City totaling over 940 miles and raising $149,000 in support of The Legal Aid Society’s legal units and projects providing life-saving services to New Yorkers in need.

When you run for Team LAS, you join a community of advocates who have run for justice, equality, and an end to the barriers that keep low-income New Yorkers from finding stability and security in their lives. With each mile run, and every dollar raised, we are able to extend our reach into the most vulnerable communities of our city.

Join Our Team
We are proud to invite Legal Aid Society staff, supporters, and friends to join us as we #RunForJustice!
