VIRTUAL Run For The Hill Of It!

It’s that time again! Our VIRTUAL Run For The Hill Of It! was so fun and such a success last year, we’re doing it again! We would absolutely LOVE to see all of our friends in person in the beautiful Wissahickon, but out of an abundance of caution for the safety of our runners, sponsors, volunteers, staff, and board, we will keep the virtual format we used last year, and have summer family fun all week long – Saturday, July 24th to Saturday, July 31st! 

Here’s how our 2nd VIRTUAL Run For The Hill Of It! works: 

Run or walk anywhere – trail, sidewalk, treadmill – for 5 miles (kids 1 mile) between July 25th and August 1st.  Not a runner? You can bike, rollerblade, swim, do yoga, dance - just move your body for 30 minutes! Get your family and friends in on the fun and create a fundraising or social team when you register! Go the distance all in one shot or over the course of the week, keeping track of your time/mileage. Take pictures and videos! Wear your craziest gear or shout your most creative cheer with friends and family – we’ll post them all to our Facebook page! Videos and photos can be emailed to Heather at MCAP. 

For all of our participants, MCAP will: 

Provide special race t-shirts to every participant via pick-up at our office or by mail. Provide an MCAP sweatshirt to all participants/teams that raise $250+ via pick-up at our office or mail.Post all photos and videos we receive from participants on our Facebook page.Announce race winners on Facebook Live (date TBA) and post them to the VIRTUAL Run For The Hill Of It page on our website.  

All funds raised through our 2nd VIRTUAL Run For The Hill Of It! support our life-saving work to provide a trained professional attorney for child victims of abuse, neglect, and trafficking in Montgomery County, ensuring their voices are heard in the processes that impact their lives. In 2020 we served 647 children, more than ever before in our 17-year history, bringing our total number of children served to nearly 8,000.
