15th Annual Racing For Donation 8k Elite Run and 5k Run+Walk

Fri 9th April 2027

A group of people gather at the starting line under a large yellow “FINISH” archway at an outdoor race event, with colorful flags and trees lining the street. Five people stand in front of a MORA and Donate Life banner, holding signs about organ donation and wearing matching blue event shirts, smiling and showing support for organ and tissue donation. Four women stand in front of a "Donate Life MORA" backdrop, holding signs that say "I am a registered organ donor" and "An organ donor saved my life," supporting organ donation awareness. A group of people in numbered bibs and light blue shirts participate in an outdoor charity walk or run on a sunny day. Some are walking, some are jogging, with trees and a building in the background.
