About the Event

The Aga Khan Foundation is a leading global development organization working to address the root causes of poverty. For more than 50 years, AKF has helped create strong community institutions that support sustainable, locally-driven initiatives to improve the quality of life for millions of people, irrespective of their place of origin, faith, or gender.

The Walk & Run has supported that work for over 25 years. Since 1995, more than 500,000 participants across major U.S. cities have raised over $63 million. Exhibits at the event showcase the Foundation's work on global challenges, and there is something to see for every age.

About Atlanta

Learn more about the host city, Atlanta.

Atlanta is the vanguard of the New South, with the charm and elegance of the Old. It's a city that balances southern traditions with sleek modernism, and southern hospitality with three skylines and the world’s busiest airport. It's a city that has been burnt to the ground and built back up; seen the horrors of war; felt the pain of droughts and floods; and given birth to Martin Luther King, Jr., the greatest figure of the civil rights movement. Atlanta is the capital of the state of Georgia.
