DanceBlue: DBubble 5K 2024

DanceBlue :
DBubble 5K!

DanceBlue is a registered student organization at the University of Kentucky that works tirelessly all year, every year, to raise money for the DanceBlue Hematology/Oncology Clinic at Kentucky Children's Hospital! The money raised through DanceBlue fundraising efforts is donated to the Golden Matrix Fund, established to support the kids of the DanceBlue Hematology/Oncology Clinic. DanceBlue funds also support the year-long fundraising engine and operations that underpin the mission, as well as providing funds to support research at the UK Markey Cancer Center.

Fundraising efforts are taken on by both the student organization itself, in the form of mini marathons, restaurant nights, and events like this 5K run/walk, as well as the UK students who are hopeful participants in our grand finale event each year – the DanceBlue Marathon. The DanceBlue Marathon is a 24-hour, no sitting, no sleeping, dance marathon in which students can participate by raising money on their own.

This event, the 2024 DanceBlue 5K, will be hosted on campus, with an optional Virtual DanceBlue DB5K for those that can't join us in person. For students planning on participating in the marathon: 5K registration is worth 20 SPIRIT POINTS!

Each registered participant will be guaranteed a t-shirt if registered by 10/2!

No refunds available.
