Please join us for the 2nd Annual Purple Run! Last year we raised over $8,000 for Safehouse Center to help survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault. Let's do it again this year and aim for more!

The Purple Run is much more than a fundraiser. Our goal is to raise awareness about Domestic Violence and to help the community recognize this issue affects all of us. There is strength in numbers, and we are so excited that you want to join us and make a statement to survivors that there is support in our community.

Every 60 seconds, 20 people are subject to inter-partner violence. Let’s work together to bring this number down!

We’re running domestic violence out of town.

The Annual Purple Run is an exciting collaboration between the University of Michigan Police Department, the Washtenaw County Prosecutor’s Office, and SafeHouse Center to bring our community together while highlighting the prevalence of Domestic Violence. In Washtenaw County, law enforcement and advocates work very closely with one another and, whether it is on active cases or community events, we are actively engaged in protecting and safe-guarding the public.
