The Life Without Limits 5K begins at the Philadelphia Art Museum and is the only weeknight race grandfathered in by the city. We offer something for everyone: a 5k race for competitive athletes or a walk/run for friends and co-workers. After the race, we head over to Eakins Oval for the After-Party at the Oval! A fun event with food trucks, Philadelphia breweries, music and a place to rest some weary feet. Our event will help to raise the vital funds needed to continue our mission and will raise awareness about how individuals with disabilities can and should be part of the community.
UCP Philadelphia has been changing the lives of children and adults with disabilities for over 60 years. Our story began by supporting individuals with cerebral palsy, but has now grown to include adults and children with autism, Down syndrome, head trauma or any condition that limits a person’s ability to function independently. Our mission is to improve the quality of life for people with disabilities by increasing independence, employment and participation in community life, always emphasizing respect and dignity. Your support will help United Cerebral Palsy of Philadelphia continue this important mission in Philadelphia and the surrounding counties.
