Covering Miles, Covering Babies: A Virtual Race Supporting Diaper Bank of NC

Mon March 1 - Wed March 31

Place

Everywhere USA

Description

It's a virtual race supporting the Diaper Bank of North Carolina!

The challenges of connecting with one another and supporting the things we hold dear have not been easy to address during these unprecedented times. Our staff, volunteers, donors, and Partner Agencies have worked creatively over the past year to serve families experiencing diaper need, and we will continue to work tirelessly to ensure that families have what they need to stay healthy and thrive. 

Now you can help too!

Join the Diaper Bank of North Carolina as we run and walk to distribute dignity to families across our state. Choose your distance from 5k, 10k, Half Marathon, Full Marathon, or Family Fun Run, and commit to covering your miles throughout the month of March 2021. Run or walk where and when you want, cover your miles all at once or in segments, and report back to us when you're done. 

Want to include the whole family? A no-cost, kid-friendly 1-mile fun run is also available!

To learn more about our work, visit our website at https://ncdiaperbank.org. For sponsorship opportunities, please contact us at info@ncdiaperbank.org.

**All participants paid and registered by March 1 will receive a race tee shirt. Full and Half Marathon runners receive a medal. Registrations after March 1 will receive a tee shirt while supplies last. Virtual packages will be shipped out 4/1/21.
