Welcome to the SING * DANCE * HUG BIRTHDAY DASH to celebrate Evelyn's BIRTHDAY "4"! Proceeds will support the Evelyn Hazel Miller Foundation which has been designated as a 501c3, non-profit charity. The Foundation's mission is to promote education, literacy, and support the general well being of children. While the primary focus is to support the "Evelyn Hazel Miller Memorial Fund" at the Columbus Zoo (give.columbuszoo.org/evelynmiller) and Dayton Children's Hospital, the establishment of her Foundation provides the opportunity to collaborate on other projects as well. Currently that includes the "Evie Bear's Little Libraries" project and soon, ten libraries will be available to provide free books to children, Pre-K through High School.
Evelyn was a beautiful, sweet, caring little girl who at the age of 21 months suddenly and without warning, acquired Bacterial Meningitis. In August, 2018, she shined her light the brightest when she gave the gift of life to two people through organ donation. She continues to be fiercely loved and always remembered by her family and friends, and we invite everyone to join us as we celebrate her with a SING * DANCE * HUG BIRTHDAY DASH and raise monies to support children in ways that would make Evelyn proud.
Registration will continue through her birthday, November 17. There is no registration fee to participate but we hope that you will consider a contribution to her Foundation. Most importantly, we hope that you, your friends, and/or family will join together ANY TIME, ANY WHERE, and ANY WAY you choose between November 1 and her birthday, on November 17, and accomplish the following "4" BIRTHDAY DASH wishes. Children under 13 years will receive an optional "Evie Bear Scavenger Hunt" just to add to the fun. Help us SING * DANCE * HUG and make this the loudest, Biggest, CRAZIEST celebration of Evelyn EVER!!!
1. SING (or say or write) something that would make "4" people smile.
2. DANCE (walk, run, bike, or even wiggle your toes) at least "4" hours and/or "4" miles. Evie would want us to stay healthy during these crazy COVID days!!
3. HUG by doing "4" random acts of kindness.
4. SEND PICTURES to eviebearhugs@gmail.com so we can share them on her Facebook page, "Evie Bear Hugs". Let's make this a party, even if just virtually!!! THANK YOU!!!
