Join the virtual race that is helping accelerate the end to our pandemic one step at a time! Together with your friends and family, you will support PATH, a global organization working with governments and businesses to strengthen global health systems. Join the Race to Beat COVID!
BENEFITING ORGANIZATION: PATH
As COVID-19 spreads around the world, PATH is one of the leading global 501(c)3 non-profit organizations actively coordinating the global response. Since 1977, PATH scientists and experts have been partnering with governments to establish emergency operating centers, advise on testing, treating, and managing the outbreak, and stand up digital and data systems that support real-time disease surveillance. Today, their urgent work includes:
- Rapidly producing low-cost tools and protective equipment for health workers around the world.
- Providing real-time information to respond to the outbreak in public health officials in their communities.
- Improving the quality of tests and accelerating COVID-19 testing capacity in places that need it most.
All proceeds from Race to Beat COVID will directly benefit the PATH COVID-19 Response Fund. For more information about PATH, visit PATH.org.
