Description
Like many races and events across the country, we’ve decided to move the RBC Race for the Kids to a virtual event.
As a hospital on the forefront of kids’ medicine, the University of Chicago Medicine Comer Children’s Hospital is committed to the safety of its patients, families, and community members. Our virtual platform will allow our participants to show their support for Comer Children’s while maintaining physical distancing.
Now more than ever, funding is needed for the groundbreaking research at Comer Children’s. In addition, our institution continues to help close the gap in healthcare disparities for children of color in our community and beyond.
Join us for the month of October to fundraise and participate in a virtual 5K Run/Walk or Kids’ Mile. Registration is free, but we are counting on you to fundraise to support children’s health in Chicago and throughout the world.
