QMG Foundation Bridge the Gap to Health Race
2026-05-09 07:30 - 11:00 | Illinois
The Quincy Medical Group Foundation’s Bridge the Gap to Health Race will return for its 26th year on Saturday, May 9, 2026. This event continues its tradition of uniting the community for a cause that strengthens and uplifts local families.

This year, the Foundation is proud to partner with Connect Child and Family Solutions, an organization dedicated to supporting children in foster care and their biological families. The 2026 Bridge the Gap Grant will help fund the renovation of Connect’s visitation space located at 435 Hampshire St. in Quincy. The redesigned space will provide a welcoming, family-centered environment where children can build and maintain meaningful connections with their parents during the foster care process. It will feature areas for families to share meals, play, and create memories together.

Additionally, a portion of the funds raised will support the QMG Foundation’s ongoing initiatives to provide financial assistance to nonprofit organizations that directly impact our community, with a focus on community development, health, and youth initiatives.

Participants can choose to join the 5K Walk/Run, 10K, Half Marathon, or the Paul Arndt Kids Fun Run. Runners will cross the Bayview Bridge into Missouri and then loop back across Memorial Bridge into Illinois, hitting two states in one race! The route will also pass through Maine Street and circle Washington Park, allowing participants to enjoy the beauty of Downtown Quincy.
