Go Purple to fight against Domestic Violence!
On October 24, 2026, Mansfield will turn purple for a powerful purpose.
Join us for the inaugural Purple Dress Run, a unique and empowering event dedicated to raising awareness and funds to fight against domestic violence. This event is a bold statement of solidarity and a celebration of strength and survival.
Why a purple dress? Purple is the color of domestic violence awareness. By running or walking in purple, you are visibly showing your support for survivors and becoming an advocate for change. Whether you run, jog, or walk, your participation sends a message that domestic violence will not be tolerated in our community.
