A NICU stay is a marathon, not a sprint. So what better way to raise money to benefit NICU families than joining Team Hand to Hold for the Austin Marathon, Half Marathon, and Paramount 5k!
Hand to Hold is thrilled to once again be an Official Charity Partner with the Austin Gives Miles program for the Austin Marathon, Half Marathon, and Paramount 5K, to be held Sunday, February 18, 2018.
Join Team Hand to Hold!
Our amazing 2016 Team Hand to Hold raised over $20k!
The Austin Gives Miles program connects Central Texas non-profit organizations to race participants willing to fundraise for a cause during their training. Runners and walkers can sign up to run on behalf of Hand to Hold and will be set up with a personal Crowdrise fundraising page.
In 2017 our amazing team raised over $20,000. Our goal for 2018 is $25,000, and we can’t do it without you! We need a few more runners and walkers from the community to add to Team Hand to Hold. Whether you’re running 26.2 miles for the marathon or walking 3 miles for the Paramount 5K, you can add even more meaning to your training and race day by supporting NICU families.
Donate to a good cause
Not planning to participate in the race but you still want to help? You can still donate to Team Hand to Hold on our team fundraising page. Your financial support will be immediately and thoughtfully put to work to help minimize the impact and improve outcomes for NICU and bereaved families. Every step and dollar makes an impact. And thanks to a generous grant from the Moody Foundation, all funds raised for Official Charity Partners will be matched!
Join Team Hand to Hold today! Just visit the Austin Marathon registration page to sign up, then on the second page, select Hand to Hold as your charity. Your crowdrise fundraising page will automatically be created for you.
