Get outside in the April air for the family friendly walk/run to honor organ donors, celebrate organ recipients and offer hope to those who continue to wait for a lifesaving organ transplant.
United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) is hosting this first annual 5k and Fun Run and proceeds will support UNOS’ lifesaving work, including organ matching and transplantation education programs.
Little racers 8 and under can join in the fun with a special Fun Run FREE for kids. Join in on a family friendly post race party featuring Pat Russell Band a heath and wellness fair and, of course, delicious RVA food trucks.
UNOS is a national nonprofit that runs the nation’s transplant system, matching lifesaving organs from deceased donors to those on the national waiting list. These matches happen 24/7 through UNOS’ headquarters in downtown Richmond.
Learn more about UNOS and how to register as an organ, eye and tissue donor at www.unos.org.
