Hope for Children Now Virtual 5K

COVID-19 has disrupted so many aspects of life, especially for the vulnerable children growing up in our lowest-income neighborhoods and attending local schools.

But for all the runners and walkers out there, it can’t take away the open road… as long as you remain 6 feet away from the nearest runner!

To spread a little Hope For Children Now, and to fundraise for the children in our community, we are hosting a “virtual” race. All you have to do is sign up, run 5K, and post your time to your page. It’s that easy. Oh, and along the way, urge your family and friends to contribute to your fundraiser page, all in support of Children Rising.
