This is a 5k Color Run/Walk event to benefit Team Miranda Strong. After the 5k stop by our Health and Wellness Fair and visit our sponsors and vendors. Food Trucks will be onsite to grab a bit after you complete the 5k. Registrants are responsible for bringing their own protective eyewear.
We provide many community events and fundraisers to spread awareness and education on asthma and allergies and how to live with them. We have held or participated in health and wellness fairs, conducted workshops, and provide financial assistance to those needing help with the costs of their asthma and allergy medications.
We also give back to other community non-profits in the name of TMS, like Caring Fields Felines and the annual TMS Academic Scholarship Award at local High Schools.
This foundation is dear to our hearts as it honors Sue & Rich De'Onfrio's daughter, Miranda DeOnofrio, who passed away on November 18th, 2017, from an undiagnosed asthma attack. Our mission is to educate, bring understanding and awareness, and to help financially those in need with asthma and allergies so that they can experience the simple joy of taking a breath without thinking and to support causes that were near to Miranda’s heart.
Miranda was never diagnosed previously as having asthma and was a vibrant, full-of-life young woman who was destined for great things. She was not only beautiful and smart but also very kind. She showed kindness to others and animals in every way she could. She was a role model and leader among her friends and peer group.
