Celebrate and support the mission of RMHC-CR at our signature events

RADIOTHON

Traditionally held on a Friday and Saturday in late January, the Radiothon is one of our biggest and most anticipated fundraisers of the year. This event raises more than $100,000 annually to help support children and families facing serious health challenges in our community. Those families — along with many of our volunteers, sponsors, partners, and friends — share their stories over the airwaves as we take calls from generous donors across the Capital Region and beyond. It’s a heartwarming event that makes a huge difference!

Our 5K Fun Run and Birthday Bash, held on a Saturday in June at Albany College of Pharmacy & Health Sciences, brings past guest families, community partners, volunteers and friends of RMHC together to celebrate the birthday of “The House That Love Built!” This family-friendly event includes a 5K race for all ages and abilities, followed by a fun-filled birthday bash complete with delicious food, sweet treats, face painting, balloon art, crafts, games, music and more.
