Story
Since 2000, Run for Mom has raised funds to purchase equipment such as: fetal monitors, infant resuscitator, labour delivery bed, oxygen analyzer, glidescope, jaundice meter, isolette, specialized surgical table and more. This year the funds raised will be designated towards the purchase of much needed equipment for the Maternity Department at Chilliwack General Hospital.
This year things are a little different and the event will be held in a virtual format to adhere to government restrictions. You will have a full week to complete your 5K. We encourage participants to create and utilize the fundraising pages on Just Giving, which not only will help track any pledges you bring in but you can also track your 5K using Strava, which links to your own page! Strava is a free app compatible with most smartphone devices.
Create your own fundraising page by clicking here and follow the prompts to sign up and click on taking part in an event to link yourself to Run 4 Mom. From there you are able to customize your own personal fundraising page by adding in pictures, a personal goal, a personal reason for supporting this event, or you can leave a generic message in there. Contact us if you have any questions
**If we are able to host in person, we will be doing heats of a select amount of people (in line with government rules) throughout the day on May 8th, 2021. While we are hoping this may be an option, please prepare for it to stay in the virtual format only. **
