Run and Ride for Rural Medicine

Sunday 28 April 2024 - The Run for Rural Medicine is a fundraiser hosted by UBC medical students to bring awareness to the challenges of accessing healthcare in rural areas. This year we're hosting both an in-person event and virtual run/cycle event that is open to anyone in the province. The Vancouver site will have a 5km run/walk, with the option for a 10km run/walk or bike ride. We will be donating all proceeds to Hope Air, a registered national charity that provides complimentary flights for rural Canadians who must travel to access healthcare in urban centres but cannot afford the airline ticket costs. Register through our website. UBC Vancouver Campus April 28th, 2024 - Event Details
