Project Gabriela: Race For Babies

About the Event

*** ALL REGISTRATIONS (IN-PERSON or VIRTUAL) MADE AFTER Sep 12 9PM ARE NOT GUARANTEED A MEDAL ***

We appreciate your interest and support for the 2nd Annual Project Gabriela Race For Babies! Hosted by The Gabriela Grace Foundation.

Project Gabriela's Why
This race was created with the mission to honor Gabriela’s name and to create a legacy in her memory that will have the impact of a lifetime. Even though her life was cut short, her fingerprints will still leave a mark on this world.

Project Gabriela's Mission
Our mission is to share Gabriela’s story and the stories of others who have experienced perinatal loss. We want families to understand this is not something they have to face alone. Our goal is to raise awareness and unite parents and families affected by perinatal loss or navigating the difficult journey of having a premature baby.

As part of this year's event, a portion of the proceeds will go towards providing support to Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta and Emory Decatur NICU, two organizations dedicated to the care and well-being of newborns and their families. Through this partnership, we aim to extend Gabriela’s legacy by helping even more families receive the nurturing care they deserve.

Our event is focused on coming together to build community, hope, and strength, while honoring all the lives lost, by running or walking for those who won’t get the chance to. The Project Gabriela Race For Babies 5K is professionally chip timed with live online results. Runners, walkers, and strollers are welcome.

The Gabriela Grace Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.

The Project Gabriela Race For Babies is a USATF certified course.

About Atlanta

Learn more about the host city, Atlanta.

Atlanta is the vanguard of the New South, with the charm and elegance of the Old. It's a city that balances southern traditions with sleek modernism, and southern hospitality with three skylines and the world’s busiest airport. It's a city that has been burnt to the ground and built back up; seen the horrors of war; felt the pain of droughts and floods; and given birth to Martin Luther King, Jr., the greatest figure of the civil rights movement. Atlanta is the capital of the state of Georgia.
