NHRC Run Walk for the Zebra 5K

The Zebra 5K Run/Walk is an event supporting the rare disease community through an in-person or virtual 5K. The zebra symbolizes rare diseases, which affect about 1 in 10 Americans. The event aims to raise awareness and funds for patients and their families, benefiting the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. These institutions provide financial support for families navigating the challenges of rare disease diagnoses. Organized by the New Hope Run Club, the run highlights the need for continued support and awareness of rare diseases affecting children.
