You will help provide world-class care for all kids – regardless of a family’s ability to pay – when you participate in the Race for Every Child. Children’s National, the region’s only pediatric health system, is hosting its annual 5K run/walk and Kids Dash on Saturday, October 20, at Freedom Plaza. The Race for Every Child unites families, weekend joggers, serious runners, and all members of the community around a common vision: to help children grow up stronger.  

Children’s National is among the nation’s top 5 pediatric hospitals and, for a second straight year, is No. 1 for babies. It relies on funds raised through the Race for Every Child to expand programs, develop new therapies and cures, and ensure the same level of world-class care for every child in need.
