Five days. $25,000 in matching support. One big opportunity to make your DAV 5K fundraising go even further.

From Nov. 1–5, all donations made to your DAV 5K fundraising page will be matched, up to $25,000, thanks to a generous matching sponsor.

That means the message you send to a friend, the post you share with your coworkers or the email you send to your family can have twice the impact.

If you've already registered, this is your chance to turn your participation into even more support for America's veterans.
Share your fundraising page. Invite a friend to join you. Help make every dollar count.

In just seven days, we'll gather along the banks of the Ohio River in Cincinnati with hundreds of veterans, families and supporters all moving together for one mission: supporting America’s veterans.

Some will run. Some will walk. Some will roll. Some will ride. But everyone will be showing up to stand with those who served.

And if Cincinnati isn't in your plans, you can still be part of the movement. The Virtual DAV 5K gives you the opportunity to participate from wherever you are during Veterans Day weekend.

Register at dav5k.org and join us next weekend.
