Be a Fundraising Champion
Alongside the excitement of community, music, and fun, we invite you to deepen your involvement with Lamp for Haiti by turning your run or walk into a personal fundraiser. We encourage each participant to raise $200 (or more) for Lamp .

As this year marks the 20th anniversary of Lamp for Haiti’s dedication to providing essential and medical care to thousands of Haitians in desperate need. We owe this milestone to the generosity of our donors in the United States. By raising $200, you will help make this 20th year even more memorable. If every runner meets this goal, we will surpass our fundraising target, enabling us to continue delivering women’s health care, child nutrition, x-rays, and medical treatment to those in need.

The top three individuals who raise the most funds will each receive a special prize in recognition of their outstanding contributions. However, the true reward goes beyond any tangible gift—the greatest prize is the knowledge that your combined efforts directly support those in need and make a meaningful difference in the lives of so many.
Together, we can make a lasting difference.
