Donor Dash

Please join the Transplant Community Alliance for their 7th annual Donor Dash event!

NEW DATE FOR 2026! Saturday, October 17, 2026 at Kiwanis Park in Tempe.

The event will feature a 10K, 5K and a 1K Family Fun Run.

The Donor Dash supports Transplant Community Alliance's Living Assistance Fund.

The race proceeds will help support transplant recipients and their families with much needed services. Some of those services include providing funds for housing, transportation, prescriptions and out-of-pocket co-pays.

We want to pack the 1K Family Fun Run/Walk with as many participants as possible. Of course, this is open to all ages, but kids under 12 are only $1 each* when registering with an adult. Kids will receive a t-shirt and medal too!

After the race, please enjoy the vendor village and silent auction.

*Discount applied at checkout

Transplant Community Alliance is recognized as an Arizona Charitable Organization, so your donation to TCA of $495 for individuals or $987 for married couples filing jointly can be a dollar-for-dollar tax credit. Make a dontaion
