Lt. Joseph Szczerba Memorial 5K

Hustle to Support Families!

Funds raised go directly to supporting families when they need it most during a child's medical journey.

Ronald McDonald House Charities of Greater Delaware provides essential services that remove barriers, strengthen families, and promote healing when children need healthcare. Our programs and support services include our 52-bedroom Ronald McDonald House, two Ronald McDonald Family Rooms, and two hospitality cart programs.

Dozer’s Run/Walk 5K is an annual event hosted by Summers Charity Fund to provide funding for canine cancer research. Summers Charity Fund is an organization created by Roger and Stacie Summers after the passing of our best four-legged friend, Dozer, to cancer in 2019. With your help we have managed to raise over $100,000 to aid in Canine Cancer Research since 2020. All donations are donated to The University of Pennsylvania, School of Veterinary Medicine!

Join us for a morning walk/run and enjoy the fun!

As a reminder, while we love our four-legged babies, they are not able to attend this race due to insurance reasons. The goodie bag will make it up to them, we promise!

A Coffee Run brought to you by the Delaware Athletic Trainers' Association!

The DATA is excited to bring you our 5th Annual Coffee Run! Even if you do not love coffee---we promise a family friendly morning for all levels of runners and walkers!

This event is a fundraiser for the Delaware Athletic Trainers' Association. Athletic Trainers (ATs) are licensed healthcare providers that specialize in injury and illness prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation, as well as emergency care and preparedness of the physically active. Our traditional setting is in secondary schools, collegiate, and professional athletic departments (We are the ones with the fanny packs that run out for injuries!!) but you will also see us in other places, including PT clinics and doctors offices. The DATA represents Athletic Trainers and advocates for the health and safety of athletes and the physically active in the state of Delaware. For more information about Athletic Trainers and the DATA visit www.delata.org.
