1. The typical U.S. adoption costs $35,ooo.  The high cost of adoption keeps children away from good, qualified parents who would adopt if they could only afford it.

2. The typical U.S. citizen is overweight, and 39% of Americans are clinically obese.  Obesity-related illness lowers the quality of life and takes parents, spouses, and children from this world prematurely.

Together, we solve both of these problems.

Join Running for Baby on our quest to unite families, give children the love and stability they deserve, and keep their parents healthy for years to come.  In 2013, we will help the Hoping Hearts Foundation fund at least one adoption by running a combined distance of over 1,000 miles.  Be a part of something amazing. With your donation of $10 or more, you can make the difference in many lives.
