Dash for Deaf Organizations

Events

Place

This is a virtual event, which means you can Dash anywhere in the US!

Description

Run, walk, and DASH your way through a self-paced 5K this April!

New this year: we're partnering with 7 deaf-centric organizations! This means you have the option to Dash and donate to your chosen nonprofit, and to fundraise in support of their cause!

Your registration fee goes to Deaf Organizations Fund (DOF); your donations and/or the donations you collect through your Dash fundraiser go straight to your preferred deaf organization.

IMPORTANT DATES:

Early bird registration: February 3 - 16
Regular registration: February 17 - 21 (rates increase by $5)
Dash event: April 4 - 6 (get those miles in!)

You have 3 days in April to complete your 5K. Grab your friends, co-workers, and family members to Dash with you!

After you sign up and are finished Dashing, you can enter your distance, time, or both data points via your profile on this website.

Dasher Swag

All Dash participants will receive a race t-shirt (included with cost of registration)!

It is our goal to have shirts arrive to you by April 4th, so you can wear them with pride and snap a selfie during your 5K!

(Arrival on time is expected but not guaranteed.)

Image Description: There are two heather denim t-shirts with white teal event logos on the chest. The logo depicts hands forming “community” in ASL and four runners of varying heights and sizes. This image is placed within a half circle, and text below reads 2025 Dash for Deaf Organizations. The shirt on the left is a straight cut, and is labeled "Loose Fit Adult (Unisex/Men) and Youth Sizes." The shirt to its right has a curvy, body-skimming fit, and is labeled "Fitted (Women) Adult Sizes."
