Meet Your Coordinator

Sophia Paarz

I'm Sophia Paarz, your event coordinator for the 2024 Run For Gus!

Thanks for being a part of the team! Your support means a brighter and healthier future for nearly patients at Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago.

I am here to help you along the way with everything from fundraising questions to event logistics. Plus, I'll be there to cheer you on the day of the event!

I am very excited to be your Run For Gus Coordinator this year! It is so inspiring that you choose to join the race to beat brain tumors, and to give back to our patients and families during our journey. I look forward to getting to know each and every one of you, and to helping you cross the finish line!

Stay tuned for my email updates with event details, team announcements and more! Here’s to another great year!
