This year, The Paramus Run once again partners with The Valley Hospital Auxiliary, supporting The Valley Hospital since 1944. Our two organizations share the common goal of positively impacting the lives of our children through education, community involvement and state-of-the-art healthcare:

• The Paramus Scholarship Fund, a beneficiary of The Run since 1979, has awarded over 650 scholarships amounting to more than $750,000

• The Valley Hospital Auxiliary’s pledge to establish a dedicated pediatric emergency department in the Valley Hospital in Paramus, opening in late 2023, and the Butterflies program, a specialized program for seriously ill children

Your support and sponsorship of this event will benefit your organization as well. As a sponsor, you will have a substantial presence, demonstrating that you are fully involved in your community while making a difference in so many young lives. This is a win-win-win proposition!

Take advantage of this opportunity by selecting from the available sponsorships described below. We know there’s at least one that should have your name on it! And why not join in the fun? We’d love to see you!

Please accept our gratitude in advance for your participation. Our success depends on the generosity of our local businesses, organizations, and friends like you.
