Full Summary: Race benefits Children's Healthcare of Atlanta and the organization Vibha.

Started in 1998 in Atlanta, Vibha's Dream Mile has become a national event held in major cities across the U.S. It has raised more than a million dollars so far, supporting more than 60,000 children. Earlier this year, Vibha Dream Mile was selected in "11 charities to run for across the USA" by active.com. 

Traditionally the race has been held on Tech's campus, but this year has moved to a beautiful new route in Johns Creek, just outside the Atlanta perimeter. Join us for a day of fun under the sun: run or walk along a beautiful new route, enjoy healthy snacks, get tapping to the lively music, meet other runners/walkers, get to know our enthusiastic volunteers...you’ll have a blast and you’ll be helping a great cause at the same time! Click here to register now. Race proceeds benefit Vibha and Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta.

Friends, family, faculty, and students are all encouraged to participate! If you want to volunteer please email us at gtvibha@gmail.com
