The 2025 Rochester River Run Returns to Genesee Valley Park on Sunday, April 13!
Why We Run (or Walk)
Your support and participation in the Rochester River Run will help hundreds of patients who come to Strong for heart, liver, kidney or pancreas transplant, and are often in need of financial assistance while awaiting and recovering from transplant surgery.
All proceeds from the Rochester River Run go toward helping our patients pay for incidental costs associated with the lifelong care transplant necessitates, such as life-saving medications and travel expenses. In addition to costly medical treatment, the need to travel – for some a great distance – adds financial strain on patients and their families.
The Rochester River Run/Walk 5K is an annual event sponsored by Friends of Strong Memorial Hospital and the hospital’s transplant teams. Learn more about our transplant programs at urmc.rochester.edu/transplant.
Children are welcome to attend this family-friendly event.
Remember to pre-register by 11:59 p.m. Saturday, April 12 to receive the pre-registration rate of $35!
