Red Shoe Run: Rockin' 5k

Getting Started

To begin, become a fundraiser as an individual. You will receive additional support from Ronald McDonald House Charities of Alabama Staff and Volunteers to assist with fundraising efforts. All individual fundraisers who agree to raise a minimum of $500 during the registration process will be given the option to receive a refund for a portion of their race registration fee once the goal has been met. Check out our participant toolkit here for tips and tricks! 

• Lead by example: make a self-donation to show your commitment to our mission.

• Update your personal fundraising webpage with your story - your reason for participating in Red Shoe Run.

• Send pre-written emails from your Fundraiser Page to ask for support from friends, family, and coworkers.

• Use an online platform or program to host a virtual game night, bake sale, class, or other fundraising event.

• Tap into your social network by starting a Facebook Fundraiser.
