Donor Dash 10K - 5K - 1K Family Fun Run
Kiwanis Park 101 E Baseline Road Tempe, AZ 85283 Organized by StartLine Sports LLCAbout this event
Please join the Transplant Community Alliance for their 5th annual Donor Dash event!
The event will take place on Saturday, December 7, 2024 at Kiwanis Park in Tempe.
The event will feature a 10K, 5K and a 1K Family Fun Run.
The Donor Dash supports Transplant Community Alliance's Living Assistance Fund.
The race proceeds will help support transplant recipients and their families with much needed services. Some of those services include providing funds for housing, transportation, prescriptions and out-of-pocket co-pays.
We want to pack the 1K Family Fun Run/Walk with as many participants as possible. Of course, this is open to all ages, but kids under 12 are only $1 each when registering with an adult. Kids will receive a t-shirt and medal too!
After the race, please enjoy the vendor village and silent auction.
