Reach the Beach Relay is in no way affiliated with the fundraising for the Pediatric Intestinal Rehabilitation Program. The organization for the race is a separate entity from the clinic, the hospital. The "Long Way To Go" team are not required to raise money in order to run in the race... they're doing it out of love. |
