Maskeraid Relief Run/Walk

The Maskeraid Relief Run/Walk is a virtual fundraising race that welcomes runners, walkers, and wheelchair users to support their community!

The Maskeraid Relief Run/Walk is hosted by MDMaskeraid to raise funds for grassroots masking in the DMV. Funds raised from this race will be used to further the efforts of providing free, reusable, hand-sewn masks to hospitals in the DC metropolitan area. The proceeds made will go toward materials, sterilization, and transport of masks!
