Event Recaps

ROAR for Kids
ROAR for Kids 2026 was a roaring success! Nearly 1,700 participants and volunteers joined us at The Maryland Zoo in Baltimore on race day, raising over $250,000 to support Kennedy Krieger research and programs. 

Hope in Bloom 
The inaugural Hope in Bloom event was truly a celebration of the incredible community that makes Kennedy Krieger so special. The event raised nearly $625,000, which will support a new, fully accessible playground—a joyful, inclusive space where children can learn, play, and build confidence—for Kennedy Krieger’s Fairmount Rehabilitation Programs.
