The Arthritis Foundation’s signature holiday-themed 5K, the Jingle Bell Run, is back and set for Saturday, December 6, 2025, at 9:00 a.m. at Patriot Park in Birmingham.
A Festive Tradition for a Meaningful Cause
Known as one of the most spirited fundraising races of the year, the Jingle Bell Run invites participants to dress in their favorite holiday attire and join a community united to fight arthritis. Whether you choose to run, walk, or stroll, the event is all about celebrating togetherness and taking action against the nation’s leading cause of disability.
This year’s event continues a tradition that spans four decades of impact. All proceeds support the Arthritis Foundation, helping fund critical research, life-changing resources, and advocacy for those living with arthritis.
How to Get Involved
Participants can register as individuals, start a team, or join an existing group. After signing up, runners and walkers are encouraged to recruit friends, family, and colleagues to join the cause and raise donations. Every dollar goes toward improving treatments and moving closer to a cure.
As of now, $18,240 has been raised, with 23 participants and 4 teams already committed. Community support is still needed to grow the impact further.
