Santa Speedo Run

Since 2011, hundreds of participants have spent a December day running through the heart of Lakeview, Chicago, clad in nothing more than Santa hats, speedos and other holiday attire. The run supports Center on Halsted, the Midwest’s most comprehensive community center dedicated to advancing community and securing the health and well-being of LGBTQ people across Chicagoland. Last year alone, the run raised over $150,000 for the Center.

Over the years, the run has raised more than $650,000 to support services and programs benefiting the LGBTQ community of Chicagoland.
