“I’ll do anything to help the Children’s Hospital at Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center (CHaD) because multiple departments in that hospital have helped save my son’s life. They have helped him survive and to thrive. Owen is my CHaD HERO. He overcomes and smiles through it all, not just for himself, but for his brothers, and all babies who have had to, are currently, or who will, have to fight for their lives.”
Jessica, CHaD Mom

Ways to HERO

There are many ways to HERO. Challenge yourself on our Half Marathon which brings you through over the river to Vermont and back, or join in our 5K run or 5K walk on one of the most fun courses out there! Have kids (or are a kid at heart?) take part in our 1-Mile Cams Course Fun Run. Volunteer with us or participate from afar with our Virtual option. As a team of friends or family or as an individual, no matter how you HERO you’re making an impact for the kids and families who need it most.
