Join Alliance member UCSF on this 5k fun run - either in person or virtually - to demonstrate your solidarity for vaccine equity and raise funds through the Get1Give1 an initiative to help increase access to COVID vaccines.
The science is clear: to finally, fully defeat the COVID-19 virus, humanity must achieve herd immunity as quickly as possible. Unfortunately, only 7% of people in low and middle income countries have been vaccinated against COVID-19. Until more of the world is vaccinated none of us will be safe. Humanity is in a race against time. Your contribution can help us win.
The race 5km will be held at 9:00am on January 22nd at Crissy Field in San Francisco.
The small print: Aside from a 3% registration fee, your race sign up donation will go to COVAX-AMC, the global mechanism created to buy and distribute vaccines to 92 lower-income countries.COVAX-AMC will spend all the money you contribute on vaccines for lower-income countries. Your funds will not pay for overhead costs. COVAX pays for all its administrative costs from its general operating budget and has regular independent audits. Get1Give1 Worldwide is an independent group of volunteers who pay for all our own administrative costs.
