Miami-Dade County Homeless Trust Sprint for Seniors Bed Race

The Miami-Dade County Homeless Trust Sprint for Seniors Bed Race brings Miamians together to rally behind a serious cause and raise vital funds to support older adults experiencing homelessness.  

The fact is, more than one in three unhoused individuals in Miami-Dade are over the age of 55 and this race, sponsored by the Miami-Dade County Homeless Trust, addresses big needs by helping to get these vulnerable individuals off the streets and into stable housing.

Proceeds will go directly toward meeting seniors’ unique needs, from securing housing to providing essentials to help make a house a home. 

So let's go! Build a bed and build a better future for unhoused Miamians. 

Should the Homeless Trust and partners decide that the environmental conditions could result in dangerous race conditions, the race may take place, Saturday, November 8 with a 9 a.m. load-in time and an 11 a.m.. start time.   We are confirming this option.  

In such an instance, beds can not be left at the site so bed owners would need to take the bed with them and bring it back the next day.  

PARTICIPANTS MUST READ THE ATTACHED document with rules, bed regulations, safety details and more!
