Join us for the 5th Annual Mighty MoJo Memorial Run, in honor of our Molly Joan who fought fiercely for 44 days against Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH) at CHOP before passing away in September 2021.  Our hope is to increase awareness of CDH, a condition as common as cystic fibrosis and spina bifida, and raise much needed funding to help make CDH a more manageable diagnosis for the future MoJos of the world.   We've raised over $100,000 the last four years, and cannot wait for another successful event.   We are excited to offer sponsors and other supporters a fun-filled morning at beautiful Ridley Creek State Park.  All net proceeds will go to CHOP’s CDH Research Fund, which is continuously coming up with innovative ways to help CDH babies have a better outcome and quality of life.     4.4 Mile Run and 1 Mile Walk        Try out this one-of-a-kind distance in honor of MoJo's days lived at this scenic local gem.  Our 4.4 mile run will take place on Saturday, April 11, 2026
