Get ready to lace up those sneakers again to support both the brave children battling cancer at Hasbro Children’s Hospital and the steadfast family members by their side.The 4th annual running of the Mark Palumbo Memorial University Orthopedics 5K is set to step off Sunday, September 24, 2023, at 9 a.m. Open to walkers and runners alike, the race will take place on the picturesque East Bay Bike Path, near University Orthopedics’ Kettle Point location. The 5K will once again raise money for The Tomorrow Fund, a non-profit organization that provides financial and emotional support for children being treated for cancer at Hasbro Children’s Hospital, as well as their families. To date, this event has raised more than $100,000 for local charities.
The event is named in honor of Dr. Mark Palumbo, a renowned spine surgeon who passed away in September 2019. He was not only a beloved member of the University Orthopedics family, he was a highly regarded pillar of the community. The Palumbo family has supported The Tomorrow Fund and held active roles with the Providence, RI-based charity for many years.
