Philanthropy

Our fundraising and volunteering opportunities.

Each year, Club Running hosts philanthropy events that raise money for charities such as Girls on the Run, Special Olympics, and UVA Children's Hospital. Club members can get involved by registering to compete in the events or volunteering to help organize. The efforts of our volunteers play a crucial role in making each one such a tremendous success.

December 2023's Holiday 5K raised over $600 for the Special Olympics. Prizes included gift cards to local restaurants and Ragged Mountain Running Store merchandise.

April 2023's "Chocolate Milk Mile" raised over $250 for the Charlottesville Free Clinic. Prizes included gift cards to local restaurants.
