 Hustle for Hope 5K - The Seattle Way



 One and half month later, better late than never! Not only did we participate in our fourth Hustle for Hope 5K during HIE awareness month in April, we hosted it! Olivia was diagnosed with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy at birth. It's a type of birth injury causing newborn brain damage that is caused by oxygen deprivation and limited blood flow. Hustle for Hope was created by the non-profit organization Hope for HIE to increase awareness, education, and support. It is an informational month for us to educate others about her health. We had enormous family and friend support walking, running, and rolling for Olivia at just over 60 attendees. We had some fun doing raffles, games, and face painting that raised a total of $3,000 towards the group Hope for HIE. We had pictures that hashtagged #HopeForOlivia #HopeForHIE #HustleForHope #ConnectedByHope. This year not only was it Hustle for Hope 5K - Olivia's Way, it was Hustle for Hope 5K- The Seattle Way as we represented the West Coast.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts to everyone who is helping to make this a yearly tradition :)
