Uniting to Defeat Sickle Cell
This unique event, grounded in compassion and unity, has been attracting over 500 participants each year. Our diverse group of runners and walkers not only includes fitness enthusiasts but also individuals, families, and friends directly affected by Sickle Cell, all coming together to support this worthy cause. The energy, commitment, and hope that reverberates through our participants each year is nothing short of inspiring.
The mission of this event aligns seamlessly with the vision of Kier’s Hope Foundation - to bring hope, support, and awareness to those grappling with Sickle Cell. By standing together, we can make a difference and illuminate the path of hope for countless individuals. Each step taken, each mile run, brings us closer to a world where Sickle Cell no longer overshadows lives, but where every individual can live a life of hope, resilience, and strength.
Founded upon principles stemming from Kier's pure passion for giving and unwavering Holiday Spirit, Junior Claus has provided a happy holiday for many families and individuals.
