We chose Hospice of the Valley because of their valuable work with both the dying and the living. It is our hope that support for Hospice care for a child, given by children, will make a difference in the end of the life of a child, and that death does not go unnoticed by the living. The club was co-founded and is led by Katie and Julia Ransohoff. The club members are in high school and college. Running for a Reason currently fundraises via sponsored miles and small raffles. Since 2003, the club has raised over $6,800.

Our Story...
Julia & Katie Ransohoff
We believe that our club provides a non-varsity sports alternative combined with community service that supports an important effort to help terminally ill children in our community through Hospice of the Valley in San Jose , CA.
In August 2005, we were awarded a Youth Venture grant to support the development of the club.
