Past Save-A-Limb Fund Events
2020 Virtual Race for Our Kids
Due to the pandemic, our 2020 Race for Our Kids event took place virtually in October. All registered participants received a Race/Walk in a Box full of swag including t-shirts, finishing medals, Maryland Zoo tickets and other goodies. After an online morning kick-off event, participants chose to walk or run at a place of their choosing.
Here is a picture of Dr. Herzenberg with one of our patient families showing off their medals and another one of Dr. Herzenberg outside ready to walk on the morning of the event.
Here is a picture of Dr. McClure wearing his 2020 Race for Our Kids medal and Dr. Nace holding his Race/Walk in a Box.
Here is a picture of a patient of the International Center for Limb Lengthening with Marilyn Richardson wearing their 2020 Race for Our Kids shirts and medals at the clinic entrance. The other picture shows a mother of one of our patients who is ready to walk the day of the race to support the Save-A-Limb Fund. Check out this link for more photos from the event!
Torrey Smith, two-time Superbowl Champion and former Baltimore Raven, participated in the Race for Our Kids with his family and shared a video of opening his family's Race/Walk in a Box with his children.
2019 Race for Our Kids
Thanks to all of the International Center for Limb Lengthening patients and their families and Rubin Institute staff who participated in the Race for Our Kids event on October 6, 2019. Team RIAO was over 70 people strong! We are grateful to everyone who donated or raised contributions to benefit the Save-A-Limb Fund. Everyone enjoyed a 1-Mile Family Fun Walk, a post-walk festival with a delicious brunch presented by the Classic Catering People, and a wonderful afternoon at the Maryland Zoo.
