Helping Hands of EG is a 501(c)(3) committed to supporting local individuals facing familial death or illness. On Sunday, October 19th we will be hosting our 5K Trail Fun Run, starting at 9am in the back of East Greenwich High School. This years race will honor Michael Friedman. Michael had a traumatic skiing injury last winter. Michael's wish is to have all the proceeds from this event go to Spaulding Rehab and Journey Forward for new equipment. Both have been instrumental in his goal to get back on his feet. We hope you can come out and support this great event.
Please no dogs at the event.
