About this event

Support Team Phillip by joining us for the 2026 Team Phillip's 5K, Fun Run and Jedi Dash in Three Creeks Metro Park in Groveport,OH. Come see some of your favorite Star Wars characters and enjoy carnival games and refreshments. Star Wars costumes are absolutely encouraged; there is even a contest!

Team Phillip has accomplished a great deal since our inception 4 years ago.

  • We have sponsored The Angels since 2022, a team which is part of the Miracle League (an organization that offers baseball for children and adults with differing abilities.)

  • We provided eight $1000 scholarships to graduating seniors who served as buddies with Miracle League.

  • We purchased and collected over 1000 toys and books during Phillip’s birthday month for Ronald McDonald House, Nationwide Children’s Hospital, Nationwide Close to Home Center, and Early Childhood Education Center (FCBDD.)

  • In partnership with Unity Presbyterian Church, we worked together to gather donations, fill and deliver 300 Spring/Easter Baskets to patients and siblings staying at the RMH and NWCH in 2024 and 2025.

  • We have donated and/or raised over $3000 to support A Kid Again (an organization that serves children with life threatening or chronic illness.)

  • We donated $500 to Gahanna Special Olympics as well as provided goodie bags and t-shirts to athletes and coaches during the 2024 and 2025 Winter Games.

  • We co-sponsored a banquet for the athletes and coaches of the Super-Hero Flag Football Team, (for children with differing abilities thru Reynoldsburg Parks & Rec.) in 2024 and 2025

  • We introduced our “Box of Hope,” a self-care box including a book on grief and a journal to families who have recently lose a child. The first 15 were given to families through Nationwide Children’s Hospital

There is still so much we can do. We are changing the world, don’t you wanna join us?
