Resolution Run/Walk 5K in January Benefits our PA Program’s (Free) Clinic

Relaying message from PA

Register Today for 5K in Support of Christ Church Clinic

On behalf of the Augusta University Physician Assistant Class of 2018, we invite you to begin your new year on the right foot and join us for our annual Resolution Run/Walk 5K. This year the race is on Saturday, January 21, 2017 at Savannah Rapids Park.  Check- in will start at 6:45am and the race will begin at 7:30am. There will be t-shirts, hot drinks, and breakfast provided! Sign up online by January 7th to ensure you receive a t-shirt. Race day registration is available.

This 5K benefits our program’s non-profit health clinic, Christ Church, which provides free healthcare screening to the underserved and underprivileged areas of Augusta, GA. Students and faculty run this clinic every 3rd Saturday of the month. We provide physical exams, blood glucose monitoring, cholesterol screenings, blood pressure assessments, patient education, and flu vaccinations.

We would not be able to run this clinic without the support of our runners and sponsors! If you are unable to attend this event and would still like to support the clinic, you can visit the race link and click “Donate.” The link to sign-up or donate is listed below:
