Thanksgiving Day 5K Run & Family Stroll presented by T-Mobile

Thu November 27, 2025 Overland Park, KS 66211 US Directions
The mission of Operation Breakthrough is to provide a safe, loving and educational environment for children in poverty and to empower their families through advocacy, emergency aid and education.

Operation Breakthrough surrounds 700 of the city’s most vulnerable children and their families with opportunities – to learn, connect, be nurtured and prepare for success. The program runs cradle  to career, helping little children become school-ready, helping school-agers stay on track and offering teens real-world experiences in digital electronics, graphic design and more. The average OB family lives on about $1,000 a month, so OB adds on-site health care, therapy, parenting classes and financial literacy. OB empowers people to breakthrough to a bright future! 

Along with financial contributions, the Kansas City Sports Commission will also be collecting items that are used to help families meet the basic needs for food, hygiene items, children's books, and gently used children's clothing. You can find a full list and more ways to help here: https://operationbreakthrough.org/how-you-can-help/item-donations
