This little bundle, My granddaughter, Kori, the oldest of twin girls was taken from Adventist Hospital by ambulance at birth to Fairfax Inova Hospital where she had open heart surgery. Today she is a thriving and growing 9 month old baby girl. During the 3 months that Kori was in the hospital, The Ronald McDonald House on the grounds of Fairfax Inova Hospital gave my daughter's family room and board so they could be closer to Kori during her stay in the hospital. The accommodations and food prepared by volunteers were great! This is just my way of helping The Ronald McDonald House to provide this kind of help to other families in need.
Thanks Jeff
Originally called “Kaps for Kids,” more than 20 years ago this event began as a walk hosted by an alumni family. Then, 10 years ago, a running component was added and the Red Shoe 5k became our signature event. It has continued to grow ever since! While there have been different names and different locations, it always has the same goal at its heart.
While this year may look different, the purpose is the same – to give our community a way to come together (virtually), show support for, and make a positive impact on the families served by RMHCDC. Please join us for our 10th anniversary and biggest year yet!
Once you register, watch your email for links to your Virtual Goodie Bag, playlists, color-your-own mile markers, and more. We’ll also have polls, games, and other ways to win prizes on our Instagram and Facebook pages.
