Event: UHG Inaugural Wellness Run & Expo
This will be the organization's biggest community event. Our intent is to show commitment to influencing community wellness in Richmond, Ca. This is an event that we want to host annually. It is through this event that we bring together community, community stakeholders, visitors, wellness vendors, entities, and providers for a free wellness expo.
We will raise money from the 5K registration and sponsorships. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the West Contra Costa Ed Fund, event expenses, and stipends for UHG programming to increase access to our services.
The race route is to be released in January 2022.
