We run for River & RMHC Maryland so that one day she can run in this race, too!

Thank you for visiting our team fundraising page for the 2026 Ronald McDonald House Maryland Red Shoe Shuffle 5K Run & Walk! 

River, her twin sister, August, and family have been extended guests at the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Maryland on and off since 2024. Our family will be returning for an extended stay this Spring while River receives further orthopedic treatments at Johns Hopkins Hospital. After undergoing more than five surgeries, you would think that River would not want to return to Baltimore, but because of RMHC, she and her sister count down the 'sleeps' until River's next appointments. Having spent well over 200 days at the House, our family can absolutely attest to the miracles that RMHC Maryland provides for families.

Anyone experiencing medical challenges will know how difficult it is to navigate everyday life while learning entirely new vocabulary, spending hours researching on your own, undergoing tests, test, and more tests, researching second opinions, and fighting insurance, and as a parent supporting your child going through this, those feelings are magnified, as options feel even more out of your hands. In the muddle of all this, you want to provide your child with stability, hope, joy, love, and maintain the magic and innocence that no child should lose due to illness. This is exactly what the RMHC of Maryland provides to every one of the 55 families that stay there each day.

The House not only provided a place to stay, they provided us a family when we had to be away from our own. A family of RMHC employees, volunteers, the Red Shoe Crew, and the other families we have met and bonded with, while staying at the House. They have truly become our 'Home away from Home'. They are our safe place to land on some of our more difficult days.

So, please, consider donating to this incredible organization that does so much for so many families when they need it the most! We run for River so that one day she will be strong enough to run this race for herself!

Ronald McDonald House Maryland is an independent non-profit organization, which means the community and supporters (like you!) provide 100% of RMHC Maryland's annual operating budget. Your gift today allows the Ronald McDonald House to continue providing refuge, compassion, encouragement, and sustenance for 2,400 families a year, who come to the Ronald McDonald House in the most difficult of circumstances.

Donating through this website is simple, fast, and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to support my fundraising efforts.

Thank you for supporting the Ronald McDonald House’s mission of keeping families together when they need it most. You are what makes RMH the House that Love Built.
