Going the Extra Mile for Hip Dysplasia

Day of Movement: Go Team!!!

Last year we had over 400 hip dysplasia patients, families, medical providers, and friends participate in our Inaugural Day of Movement! Together, we raised over $7400 for the International Hip Dysplasia Institute to support hip dysplasia awareness, education, and research!!!

Help us BEAT that this year!

We welcome hip dysplasia patients, families, friends, and healthcare providers to create individual or group Teams to fundraise for the International Hip Dysplasia Institute during the Miles4Hips Day of Movement. When thinking about your Team and Day of Movement activities, please prioritize safety of yourself, your families, your friends, and your communities by following your local and state recommendations for group gatherings, social distancing, and mask wearing.

Here are some ways to get involved:

  • Share the Day of Movement fundraising link with your friends, family, and medical providers. Encourage them to buy a tee shirt or facemask or make a donation through Custom Ink fundraising to support the IHDI. Make sure to have them add that they are supporting you and/or “Team (NAME).”
  • Share your story and day of movement plans with us. We would be happy to create a Team page that you can share with family, friends, and medical providers to support you. We can add the tee shirt/facemask fundraising page and/or a donation link directly to the IHDI if you would like to set a fundraising goal.
  • Create a virtual event and invite your family, friends, and medical providers to join you in movement on October 10, 2020. Maybe you want to encourage everyone to get out and walk a virtual mile with you? Maybe you want to have everyone go outside and play outside with their families for 30 minutes? Maybe you want to have people “pool” their miles to team goal? The sky is the limit!
