From the Organizer
Join us for the Run for Healing 5K, supporting Montero Medical Missions (MMM) — a nonprofit that combines medical, humanitarian, and operational expertise to build sustainable healthcare projects around the world and within the U.S. Here locally, MMM’s work includes healthcare support for veterans, which this event will directly impact.
Every registration and/or donation helps MMM advance its belief that all people deserve a dignified life of health and healing. Run, walk, or cheer—your miles help deliver healing where access is limited. We thank you in advance for your support.
