The John Martins Foundation/Ri Burn Foundation 5k Race/Walk

The John Martins Foundation and the RI Burn Foundation are hosting the 2nd Annual 5k and 1k Race/Walk to support burn survivors. This event aims to raise funds for advanced laser equipment for the burn unit at Rhode Island Hospital, which is essential for reconstructive surgeries to minimize scar tissue. Participants can choose between a 5k run/walk, a 1k run/walk, or a virtual 5k option.

All registered participants by May 5th will receive a free RaceDay t-shirt, and finishers of the 5k will earn a medal. The event will take place rain or shine, with no refunds issued. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
