Moving Hearts Forward One Mile at a Time

Imagine the strength it takes for a family to face a child's heart disease diagnosis. Now, imagine being able to offer them a lifeline. That's exactly what you do when you join the Wild Hearts Fun Run, an event dedicated to Moving Hearts Forward One Mile at a Time by supporting Kerrington's Heart.

Kerrington's Heart is a 501(c)(3) non-profit that provides essential education, encouragement, and hope, building a vital network of support for families and caregivers of children with heart disease. They offer everything from emotional and bereavement support to financial aid for meals, fuel, lodging, and even food and drinks for the Pediatric Cardiac ICU.

With a child born with a congenital heart defect every 15 minutes in the US, the need for Kerrington's Heart's services is constant. Your participation in our fun run directly empowers them to continue providing this critical support, celebrating every win and mourning every loss alongside these brave families. Lace up your shoes and run or walk for a cause that truly touches hearts!

 
 

“They provide so much more than just financial assistance for families. They provide a lifeline, a network of emotional and educational support that is a light in the darkness reminding you that you are not alone. Together, we celebrate every win, mourn every loss and setback.”

— Maggie

 

The SuperBead:
Carry Strength, Share Hope

During the Wild Hearts Fun Run, this simple bead is a powerful symbol of love and encouragement for kids fighting congenital heart disease (CHD).

Here's how you can make a difference with your SuperBead:

  • Get Yours: Add your SuperBead at checkout when you register for the race.

  • Carry It: Wear your SuperBead during your run or walk, letting it inspire every step.

  • Share Your Strength:

    • Gift it to a child with CHD you know personally, sharing a tangible piece of your encouragement.

    • Return it to us, and we'll ensure it reaches a hospitalized child who desperately needs that strength and encouragement directly from you.

By carrying a SuperBead, you're not just running or walking; you're actively sending a message of support and hope to a child who needs it most.
