Poppy's Run/Walk For Life 5K/1K

About the Event

To honor those who have died by suicide and those who are forever affected by suicide, the 3rd annual Poppy's Run For Life 5K Run/Walk will be held on March 09, 2025, tentatively at Hennessy Park, Houston, Texas. 

All proceeds from the row will be donated to the suicide prevention and awareness programs and services at Alexander JFS and the Montrose Center.  

Poppy’s Run for Life is recognized as a 501(c) 3 charity by the IRS.  

Caryn Honig is the founder and director of Poppy's Run For Life.  Caryn's father and grandfather both died by suicide, forever changing her life as well as the lives of family, friends and loved ones.  They are not alone.  Suicide is on the rise and is a leading cause of death in the US with 45,979 deaths in 2020.  This is about one death every 11 minutes.  The number of people who attempt or think about suicide is even higher.  Suicide affects the health and well-being of surviving family, friends, co-workers, loved ones and the community.
