5K Fun Run and Family Walk

The 5K Fun Run and Family Walk is the Coalition's main fundraiser for the year and we can't wait to see you there!

Join our Board, Partner Practices, sponsors, grantees - and their babies! - and wonderful supporters like you as we enjoy a wonderful community day, get active and raise vital funds. Participants have the opportunity to host their own fundraising pages and organize their own teams to run, walk or bike the 5K. 

We'll start the day with our Kids Dash, followed by a chip-timed 5K and non-chipped family walk. Immediately after the race, enjoy a food truck, face painting, arts and crafts and more!

Our Why: At the Chicago Coalition for Family Building, we believe that everyone who wants to start a family deserves the chance. Our mission is to remove financial barriers that prevent the creation of a family. As we work toward this goal, we take action to financially and emotionally support those struggling with infertility. Join us in giving hope and building families!
