Join the Walk for Hostages on April 6th

Please keep all eyes on the hostages as we move towards these dates of freedom on the Jewish calendar.

Please say their names. All 59.

We’ve been downtown every week since November 2023 and would love for more of you to join us walking in solidarity with the hostages still held in Gaza.

They need their freedom, and they need it now. 

Please join us in walking for the freedom every single one of them deserves. Our ability to be truly free depends on all of the hostages being free.

Sunday, April 6th marks the 548th day since 240 hostages were kidnapped from Israel and taken to Gaza. 59 of them still remain captive there, 24 of whom are thought to still be alive. Please – join us this Sunday to walk for all those still held hostage. The world cannot forget. Please bring posters and wear red.

The local Boulder chapter of Run For Their Lives (part of the larger Bring Them Home Now initiative) has been walking in downtown Boulder every week since Thanksgiving, 2023. There are multiple groups like ours meeting internationally and across US cities (including a local Denver chapter).

There are 231 active Run For Their Lives groups across the world. Wherever you are, whether visiting friends or family or vacationing, you can join a group and walk with them, or walk on your own and post a video in the main Run For Their Lives Facebook group, in our local FB group, or on your own feeds. The initiative’s goal is to get as much press coverage as possible for the hostages through publicizing these walks.

Our group meets at 1 pm on the corner of Pearl & 8th and walks the length of the Pearl Street Mall and back, stopping at the courthouse for a brief video that the leads of Run For Their Lives include in their weekly recap. The goal is to share the message far and wide (specifically via social media) that the hostages have not been forgotten. This is not a protest; it is a peaceful walk to show solidarity with the hostages and their families, and a plea for their release.

When: Sunday, April 6th at 1 pm
Meet-up: Corner of Pearl & 8th Street
