Remote Area Medical (RAM) at UVA is excited to announce the fourth annual RAM @ UVA 5K on Sunday, March 30, 2025!
RAM is a nonprofit organization that provides free healthcare to those in need through mobile clinics offering medical, dental, and vision services to underserved and uninsured individuals. Since it was founded in 1985, RAM’s Corps consists of more than 212,000 volunteers. Licensed dental, vision, and medical professionals at these clinics have treated more than 940,000 individuals, delivering more than $200 million worth of free care. More information about the organization can be found on their website, at https://www.ramusa.org/.
As a chapter of the organization, our goal is to promote that mission and host a biennial free clinic in Fishersville, VA. This is a big dream, and we will need your help! We successfully hosted our inaugural clinic in November 2022, the first to be organized entirely by a collegiate chapter, where we provided over 500 patients with $250,000 in medical care. Our second clinic in April 2024 achieved similar success, serving over 400 patients over one weekend and providing the equivalent of $225,000 in free healthcare. The cost of hosting our own clinic is approximately $25,000, and we continue to work actively in our community to raise these funds. Whether you decide to participate in person or virtually, all proceeds from the race will go towards funding for our next clinic to help bring the mission of RAM closer to the Charlottesville community!
All in-person participants will have their timing results available online after the race and will receive refreshments and a T-shirt (first 60 sign-ups) on race day while supplies last. The top three finishers will also receive a prize donated by local Charlottesville businesses. Bib and T-shirt pickup will begin at 12:30 pm on race day. Participants must start the 5K by 1:15 PM and finish no later than 2:30 PM.
Price to register will increase after March 2, 2025 so make sure to sign up as soon as you can!
See you on race day!
