The DC Race 5K at Silo Square is more than just a race, it’s an opportunity for our community to come together and make a real impact. This annual fundraiser supports the DeSoto County Dream Center and the work we do every day to serve students, families, and neighbors in need. From education programs to food assistance and outreach initiatives, every dollar raised helps us continue creating opportunities and meeting needs across our community. Whether you run, walk, or volunteer, your participation plays a direct role in helping families Dream Again. Join us at Silo Square and be part of something bigger than the finish line.

    Run, jog, or walk to help our community Dream Again!

    Every registration for the DC Race 5K & Kids Fun Run directly supports the mission of the DeSoto County Dream Center.

    When you cross the finish line, you're doing more than completing a race, you’re helping bring hope, healing, and opportunity to neighbors throughout DeSoto County. Together, every step makes a lasting impact.
