20th Annual Race for the Place 5K to Benefit MSU Safe Place: April 13, 2014

The Race for the Place 5K is the largest annual fundraiser for MSU Safe Place, allowing the program to continue to provide vital services to the members of the MSU and greater Lansing communities who experience relationship violence and stalking.

MSU Safe Place is located in East Lansing on the campus of Michigan State University. For 20 years, the program has continued in its mission to provide shelter, advocacy, support and counseling services for victims of domestic violence and stalking while seeking to end interpersonal violence through public awareness and community education. All services are free and confidential. Annually the program shelters approximately 40-60 adults and children and provides supportive services to 80-100 individuals.

The Race for the Place 5K is part of the Playmaker’s Greater Lansing Race Series.  The course takes place on the beautiful campus of Michigan State University.  Race for the Place is a fun-filled family event, with events for kids of all ages, MSU varsity athlete participation and a visit from Sparty!
