Step Forward. Give Hope. Change Lives.

LeTip of Brick and JAR of Hope are proud to launch the first-ever annual Steps For Hope 5K — right here in Brick, NJ.

This isn’t just a race.
It’s a movement.

We’re coming together as a community to raise awareness for Duchenne muscular dystrophy, support families fighting this devastating disease, and raise funds for local nonprofits that make a real impact every day.

Whether you run, walk, cheer, or sponsor — your steps bring hope.
Join us for a day of unity, purpose, and community pride.

The idea for Steps For Hope was born from a simple question:
“How can we make a bigger difference together?”

LeTip of Brick—an organization built on community, integrity, and helping others—connected with JAR of Hope, a nonprofit dedicated to fighting Duchenne muscular dystrophy, a rare and fatal muscle-wasting disease that primarily affects young boys.

Together, we realized we could do something powerful:
Create an event that unites businesses, families, and neighbors around a shared mission — hope.

The Steps For Hope 5K is more than a race. It’s a platform to:

  • Raise awareness for Duchenne muscular dystrophy

  • Support JAR of Hope’s mission to find a cure and help affected families

  • Fundraise for local nonprofits who strengthen our community

  • Bring Brick together for a purpose bigger than ourselves

Every step you take, every dollar donated, and every person you invite fuels research, supports families, and empowers organizations making real change.

This is the first.
The beginning of a tradition.
A legacy of hope — one step at a time.
