About Academy of Hope

Academy of Hope was founded in 1985 by educators Marja Hilfiker and Gayle Boss, who recognized the urgent need for high-quality education for adults in Washington, DC. What began as a grassroots effort has grown into one of the few adult public charter schools in the United States.

Today, Academy of Hope serves more than 1000 adult learners each year across two campuses in Wards 5 and 8. We provide free tuition for DC residents and flexible learning options, including daytime and evening classes, in-person and virtual instruction, and tailored support for learners at all levels.

With a focus on lifelong learning and positive social change, AoH meets the needs of adult learners through direct service, research, and advocacy, supported by dedicated teachers, specialists, and leaders. We stand out among adult education providers by tailoring programs to each learner, from foundational literacy and high school completion to career training and college transition. Our Student Support Team also helps learners overcome barriers by providing childcare, transportation, food resources, housing support, and behavioral health services.

The Academy of Hope Foundation, a registered 501(c)(3), expands these opportunities by raising critical funds to sustain and grow our work. The foundation strives to expand and enhance adult learning opportunities, providing comprehensive support ranging from basic literacy to career mentorship. Together, we are committed to ensuring that every adult learner has the opportunity to achieve their goals and thrive through the power of education.

The Kitchel Injury Law Capitol Hill Classic is an annual 10K, 3K and Fun Race—the only race run exclusively on the roads of Capitol Hill. Funds raised through the event benefit the Capitol Hill Cluster School, a DC public school serving over 1,100 students. The race started in 1980, and the 10K is the oldest and biggest in Washington, DC.

The 10K starts out in front of Peabody Primary School, just a few blocks from the US Capitol. Runners traverse Capitol Hill, passing Stanton Park, the Capitol, the Supreme Court, the Library of Congress, Lincoln Park, the RFK stadium campus, and the Anacostia Riverwalk Trail.

This is the 11th Annual Clusterbusters #CureforCluster Virtual 5k, but also the 2nd Annual event surrounding the DC AHDA Headache on the Hill: A Visual Installation AND this year we are ALSO partnering with Chronic Migraine Awareness to raise even more awareness to the devastation of headache disease.

The installation aims to visually and emotionally depict the vast impact that headache and migraine disorders have on millions of Americans. Thousands of purple flags will cover the National Mall Park near the nation’s Capitol Building in Washington, D.C. in representation of those affected by headache disease.

Participants will choose which of the three organizations they would like their registration fee to be attributed to, or you can choose to have it split between all 3.

Clusterbusters is a non-profit supporting, educating, advocating, and supporting research for those experiencing cluster headache. Cluster headache affects 1 in 1000 people and is often nicknamed the "suicide headache" because it is medically acknowledged as 10/10 pain.

Chronic Migraine Awareness is a non-profit empowering the chronic migraine community through awareness, advocacy, and early intervention. The devastation of chronic migraine has lead to a loss of hope and sadly those who have died by suicide to escape the pain.

Alliance for Headache Disorders Advocacy and The Headache Alliance secures equitable policies for those impacted by headache disorders. Headache diseases affect more than 40 million people in the U.S. and 1 billion people globally.

Participants in this 5k help raise awareness for headache diseases. By participating in person in Washington, DC, by participating virtually, and in your local area - those seeing the posts, t-shirts, and efforts will be educated that headache diseases are devastating and we need more support, research, and education.

Share Your Progress and Participation on Social Media (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram) using the #HikeForHeadacheHealth or #CureforCluster hashtag. The main goals of our annual virtual event are to fund research, spread awareness, and support the headache community. By “going live” or taking photos of yourself or your team/regional group of runners, you can help us flood social media with inspirational images and messages of headache patients. There may be someone in your area who is struggling without a support system and can benefit from your efforts to raise awareness.

EVENTS

LIVESTREAM KICKOFF

A virtual livestream will kick off this event on Saturday, June 7 at 10am British time for those in Europe/Global Community and 9 am ET for those in the US. Check your local time zone. The videos will be visible on our Clusterbusters Facebook Page.

IN PERSON OPTION:

Event Name: Hike for Headache Health

Date: June 23, 2026

Location: Washington, DC Installation Area

VIRTUAL OPTION:

As always - you can participate ANY day in the month of June and share your progress and updates throughout the month.

This year instead of shipping race bags, participants can choose their branded items at:

A virtual 5k can be run or walked at any location, so you can join us from anywhere in the world. You can use a treadmill at home or in a gym. You can run outside in your neighborhood or at a local park. You can bring your children, use strollers, or participate in a wheelchair. There’s no time limit, so you can run or walk 3.1 miles (5 kilometers) at your own pace. Your pets can even participate with you!

Lastly, June is Headache and Migraine Awareness Month, so feel free to add purple to your race gear to show support for all who suffer from head pain.

Proceeds will support Clusterbusters, Chronic Migraine Awareness, and the Alliance for Headache Disorders Advocacy (AHDA).

You can form a team to participate, and teams can fundraise together. Also, you can support us as an individual by sharing your participation in this event with friends and family and encouraging them to donate in your name on your fundraising page.

Prizes will be awarded to the 3 individuals and the 3 teams who raise the most funds.

Safety Warnings: Always follow the precautions advised for your health needs and be respectful of others around you. You can even bring your oxygen tank with you as participants have in the past. No matter where you’re running or walking on race day, make sure you have plenty of water available. If someone falls behind, make sure everyone is accounted for when you reach the end.

48th Annual Running Psychologists “Ray’s Race” 5k Run & Walk at the American Psychological Association (APA) Convention on August 8 at 7 AM.

Register NOW!! to run and walk with the Running Psychologists in Washington, DC.

The Annual Ray’s Race is an APA tradition started by former APA President and CEO, Ray Fowler. It’s a great opportunity to get some exercise during the convention, network with colleagues, and see a beautiful part of our host city. The race route is conveniently located near APA hotels and the Convention Center. Busses will be provided: Leaving at 6 AM.

Registration is $40 for APA Members, Family, & Friends (or Local Attendees!); $30 for Students (PROMO CODE "STUDENT2026"). Youth 14 and under receive a free entry.

The 2026 event will be held on Saturday, August 8th at 7:00 a.m. at the Historic Congressional Cemetary. Busses will be provided. For more information: https://congressionalcemetery.org/about-us/

With its first burial in 1807, Historic Congressional Cemetery is among the oldest institutions in Washington, DC, and is the final resting place of over 70,000 individuals.

Their stories are American history in microcosm, all in 35 acres of the nation’s capital. Still an active burial ground, it is the only place in Washington where individuals can be buried at a site directly on Pierre L’Enfant’s 18th century city plan.

Historic Congressional Cemetery was designated a National Historic Landmark in 2011 and continues to build upon the legacy of over 200 years of American history. The cemetery is administered by the nonprofit Association for the Preservation of Historic Congressional Cemetery and owned by Christ Church + Washington Parish. The association is constantly striving to maintain the historic, cultural, and aesthetic qualities of this natural landscape along the Anacostia River. Hundreds of volunteers each year help preserve the cemetery and further its nonprofit mission

The Running Psychologists are members of Section I of APA Division 47 Society for Sport, Exercise & Performance Psychology. For more information or to inquire about membership, please contact: https://www.apadivisions.org/division-47/membership/index

Saturday, November 14, 2026, at 7:45am at Fletcher’s Cove is our FIFTH annual Run 4 MK. In partnership with Bishop’s Events, we’re coming together to run in support of ending chronic homelessness in Washington, DC

By participating in person or virtually, you’ll support Miriam’s Kitchen’s essential programs and services. The run is scheduled near Veterans Day and at the start of National Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Week (November 15-21, 2026). These dates align closely with the heart of our work and the people we serve.

Run 4 MK honors the legacy of Waldon Adams, our late friend, former guest, and community leader. Waldon was an avid runner, who completed more than 80 races, including 15 marathons. He was also a passionate advocate who helped others find safe and stable housing. We will celebrate his life and impact, five years after his passing.

The race takes place at a meaningful location. It’s within the area our Outreach Team regularly serves. It’s a chance to connect with the community, meet other passionate advocates, and take action for housing justice.

You can join in on the mission by:
- Fundraising for our cause by creating a fundraiser here: https://www.miriamskitchen.org/campaigns/run4mk
- Registering to run/walk with us on Saturday
- Cheering and celebrating the strides we’ve made (physically and structurally)
- Encourage your company to become Race Sponsors (email Rachel at rachel.glassman@miriamskitchen.org for more information)

The Horace Mann PTA is hosting its 6th annual Great Turkey Chase 5K & Fun Run, and we are so excited! This is one of the few opportunities we have during the school year where we can come together as a community - families, teachers, and neighbors - to celebrate our amazing school and faculty, as well as have a great time!

Why are we running? Over 75% of the PTA’s fundraising dollars go towards the salaries of many of our partner teachers and specialists – funds that are not provided by DCPS. The PTA also supports a myriad of initiatives, including educational programs like gardening and language, professional development opportunities, classroom enrichment, facility enhancements, and more! Each registered runner and donor makes a huge difference as we strive to further enhance our school. Help us make this year our biggest event yet!

And what's a race without a little competition? Our students are getting in on the fundraiser action by seeking donations from friends and extended family for ultimate bragging rights and a chance to win a Pajama Day and Pizza Party. During registration sign-up, runners will have an option to add a donation for the grade competition! Be sure to mention the name and grade of the students you're donating on behalf of, so they get credit.

Starting time is November 15th at 9:30AM (5K) and 9:40AM (1 Mile) from the Mann parking lot. Note: These runs will not be on a closed course so please keep to the sidewalks and practice caution while running through the neighborhood.
