For over a decade, No Surrender Running Club (NSRC) has been a powerful presence in the 49507 neighborhood of Grand Rapids, using sport to break down systemic barriers and support the biopsychosocial-emotional well-being of Youth of Color and their families. As the only local organization offering this kind of free, intergenerational, bilingual (Spanish and English) programming, NSRC creates a safe and inclusive space for over 250 youth ages 5–19 of all ability levels each year to grow stronger—physically, mentally, and emotionally—through running. From April to September, participants meet twice a week to run, build community, and engage in discussions on topics like nutrition, mental health, and stress reduction. Families train together, youth prepare for local races, and young leaders even shape the organization through its Youth Board. With a decade of impact behind us and a growing number of families joining each year, NSRC is building healthier futures—one step at a time. Your support can help us go even further.
