Registration Details
Register EARLY and SAVE!
All paid registrations include a guaranteed t-shirt and finisher medal for registrations made by March 15.
You can register multiple family members during the registration process. Fundraising is not required to participate, however, every registrant is automatically set up with a fundraising page.
If you live out of town or can’t make it to Forest Park on April 15, you can still participate in Run for Sight through virtual events and be a superhero for kids with visual impairments.
Creating a Fundraising Team
Teams are the heart of Run for Sight! DGC families, donors, volunteers, and other supporters recruit teams of superheroes to participate in Run for Sight to support children with visual impairments and the Delta Gamma Center!
You can create a new team or join an existing team as you register for the race.
After you have selected your event during registration, the next page will be the fundraiser/team/donation page.
That page is where you can make a donation, set up a personal or team fundraising page, join an existing team or you can just continue through to the payment page.
If you want to set up an individual fundraising page or a team fundraising page to share with others, you can do it during registration. You will be able to set it up with a personalized message and image.
Contact events@dgckids.org if you need any assistance with setting up your fundraising page.
Make a Donation or Purchase a T-shirt
If you can't participate or volunteer in the run/walk, you can still support DGC kids and families by making a donation to the Delta Gamma Center and/or purchasing t-shirts.
Every contribution counts in helping us make sure kids with visual impairments can reach their full potential!
