Mark your calendars for the Red Shoe 5k on Sunday, May 19, 2019 at Bull Run Regional Park in Centreville, VA!

Stay tuned for more announcements about registration opening, sponsorship and volunteer opportunities, and fun activities we're planning for our new location!

Last year, 621 pairs of feet (and dozens of paws) walked and ran, but we raised a lot more than just feet in 2018!  Thanks to our generous sponsors, fundraisers, donors, walkers, and runners, $89,715 was raised to help families in need at the 8th Annual Red Shoe 5k Run & Walk!  High fives all around!

Since beginning more than 20 years ago, this event has had different names and different locations, but always the same goal at its heart - to give our community a way to come together, show support for, and make a positive impact on the families served by RMHCDC.

Thanks to all who supported the Red Shoe 5k, critical programs that ease the hardship of children's illness on families and children will be supported!  Together, we will continue growing, changing, improving, and supporting families and children in our community.

To all of our participants, volunteers, donors, sponsors, and friends, thank you for being a special part of this race day; thank you for becoming a member of the RMHCDC family; and thank you for making a difference in the lives of families in need.  On behalf of the families and children served by RMHCDC, we thank you for every dollar given, every hour volunteered, every foot raised, and each ounce of love shared.

Since the 2017 Red Shoe 5k, support from friends like you has made it possible to provide more than 15,539 nights and visits to our Ronald McDonald Houses, Ronald McDonald Family Rooms, and Ronald McDonald Care Mobiles. Your support helped to put a second Ronald McDonald Care Mobile on the road and for a Ronald McDonald Hospitality a la Carte program to begin in two partner hospitals.  Without you, this wouldn't be possible.

Thank you for raising your feet to raise hope for families!
