MILES FOR MIDWIVES 5K
ABOUT:
The 16th Annual Miles for Midwives 5K Fun-Run and Birth Fair is a fundraiser that brings together the birth and midwifery community, runners, families and midwifery supporters for a day to recognize and celebrate the contribution of midwives in New York City and the families they serve.
Come run, walk, cheer, or simply enjoy the birth fair! Bring the whole family - kids, strollers, and dogs encouraged!
Miles for Midwives creates a physical space to reconnect as a community, as well as a day to honor ourselves, as hardworking midwives and hardworking families. All proceeds go towards NYC Midwives.
Help us spread the word about this exciting event that supports the midwifery community!
