The Fun Run Is Back!

Heart Beats Children’s Society is thrilled to announce that the 16th Annual Fun Run is back for 2025! We’re looking forward to another amazing day filled with community spirit, laughter, and heart.

Last year’s 15th Annual Family Fun Run at Confederation Park was a huge success, featuring our first-ever Presenting Sponsor, CPKC, who generously committed to donating $15,000 right off the bat! With approximately 190 participants joining in, we raised around $100,000—an incredible achievement! A huge thank you goes out to the entire Run Committee for their outstanding efforts in making the event so successful.

This year’s Fun Run will take place on Saturday, June 14, 2025, at Confederation Park in Calgary. It’s a family-friendly event, and we can’t wait to see you there! More details, including registration and event activities, will be shared soon. Be sure to mark your calendar and stay tuned!
