NJMOM is excited to announce we are the exclusive Kid Zone Sponsor at this year’s 4th Annual 5K Rook Run on October 8th and we’ve pledged to raise $5,000 for children around New Jersey

We’ll be joining our friends at Rook Coffee, The Valerie Fund, Jones Bar, Dean’s Natural Food Market, and so many more to run, walk and support families around New Jersey battling pediatric cancer and blood disorders at the 4th Annual 5k Rook Run on October 8th at the Long Branch boardwalk.

What is the Rook Run, you ask?

The 4th Annual 5K Rook Run is one of the Jersey Shore’s largest 5k races and supports The Valerie Fund, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization which provides care and support for children battling cancer and blood disorders around New Jersey. The Rook Run (and walk) will take place on Sunday, October 8th at the Great Lawn section of the Long Branch Boardwalk. The 5K run, and newly added one-mile walk, is expected to surpass last year’s 3,000 participants, and contribute to over half a million dollars raised over the past three years for the children of The Valerie Fund.

We are excited to support The Valerie Fund, be a part of this life-changing cause, and lend a helping hand to little ones right here in our Garden State. We’ve pledged to raise $5,000 and have created a #NJMOM team to support our goal. We hope you’ll join us by running, walking, crawling, strolling (yes, strollers are allowed in the race!), or donating any amount you can. Every bit helps! Register your family here.
