Fundraising for the Red Shoe 5k

Fundraising is at the heart of the Red Shoe 5k. Every dollar raised helps provide a home-away-from-home for families with seriously ill children staying at Ronald McDonald House Washington DC. Fundraise individually or create/join a fundraising team to support!

Individual Fundraising

Every runner gets a fundraising page

When you register for the Red Shoe Shuffle, we automatically create a personal fundraising page just for you. Using it is optional, but it's a powerful way to support the Ronald McDonald House Washington DC families.
