The Bloom Energy Stars and Strides walk/run will honor and support Santa Clara County’s frontline medical workers and the communities they serve. All proceeds will benefit the VMC Foundation, a community-driven, nonprofit organization that raises funds in support of Silicon Valley's most vital public healthcare institution - Santa Clara Valley Medical Center Hospitals & Clinics. Proceeds from this year’s Stars and Strides event will help the VMC Foundation bring COVID-19 vaccinations to Santa Clara County’s underserved and vulnerable communities, support the mental welfare of our frontline healthcare workers after a particularly tumultuous year, and bolster services and aide for critical healthcare needs in the community such as pediatric diabetes. Hand out race packets, cheer the runners, direct participants to the finish line and festival, and meet new friends!
