The Human Race The Human Race is the largest collaborative fund-raising event in Sonoma County and the largest Human Race in the nation! The first Human Race raised $1,800. In 2006 over 10,000 walkers and runners joined forces to raise 1.1 million dollars for 400+ non profits. The 50,000 people who contribute $5, $10, or $100 to their favorite non profit are the secret to Sonoma County's Human Race success story. The date for the 2009 Human Race is May 9th. Call 573-3399 for further information.
