Experience the timeless spirit of Derby night as we gather to celebrate and support the families who rely on RMHC Rochester. It’s an evening of elegance, tradition, and extraordinary purpose.
An extraordinary night begins with an extraordinary purpose. Race for the Roses invites our community to come together for an evening of elegance, energy, and impact all in support of families who need a place to stay, rest, and heal while their child receives medical care.
Inspired by the traditions of spring racing, the night blends style and heart through great food, engaging entertainment, and powerful moments that remind us why this work matters. Every guest plays a role in keeping families close when it matters most.
When a child needs hospital care, families often face long days, difficult decisions, and time away from home. RMHC Rochester provides a place to stay, warm meals, comfort, and community so families can focus on their child, not the logistics.
