RUN FOR YOUR HIPPY HEART VIRTUAL 5K

April 20-May 4, 2020

With this year's Run for Your HIPPY Heart Virtual 5k, we thank you in advance for heading outdoors to run, jog or walk. If you prefer to stay inside, a treadmill, is just fine. We also encourage you to make it a family affair or share with a friend.

When you sign up, you can download a race bib, a Word document, where your can  enter your name and customize your race number.  As a token of our appreciation, we will send you a race metal and a HIPPY water bottle while they last.  Please allow 3 weeks. You can also purchase an event tee-shirt that includes a 20% discount. The code is 2020VK5 at Shop HIPPY.  Child's registration (7 and under)  must accompany an adult registration. 

Your support of this year's Virtual 5k is needed more than ever as we face the uncertain future resulting from this global health crisis.  COVID-19 has impacted our entire HIPPY network of 14,000 families, our selfless staff members and communities, our country, and our world in unprecedented ways.  We are all truly in this together.

Our responses to meet the ever-evolving needs of our HIPPY USA affiliates have been rapid but focused on doing one thing, no matter what—staying connected to our families.

Everything we do is to keep engaging our parents as teachers at home who are moving their young learners closer and closer to absolute school readiness. This is our mission and no crisis will alter our focus.  It will only challenge us to be innovative in how we do our work and achieve our impact.


For those of you who may be anxious about COVID-19 and participating in activities we understand your concern. At all times, we advise you follow the guidelines of your local and state officials as to ensure that you are in compliance with their guidelines. If you have health concerns, please contact your doctor. Within this form. there is a waiver that speaks specifically to this topic as well as guidance from the Center from Disease Control. You also have the option of making the fundraiser your own with indoor biking, treadmill or any other physical activity that you enjoy. And if you want to give to HIPPY just because, we welcome your support with a donation.  Additional resources about exercise amid COVID-19  can be found at the World Health Organization and CDC provides information  face coverings and physical activities.

While, we do not know what we are fully facing over the next few days, months, or even year, we are certain that your support of our work will help us get through these uncertain times.  Regardless, your gift will help us continue supporting our field staff as they continue to be there for our families. 

As always, your generosity is greatly appreciated and used to do great things for kids and families.
