2025 Run for TMCO!

REGISTER HERE to run on Saturday, October 18, 2025, 9:00-11:00AM at Rice University!

The Texas Medical Center Orchestra (TMCO) is an award-winning community orchestra and non-profit 501(c)(3) based in Houston, TX. Comprised primarily of medical professionals, TMCO’s mission is to provide educational outreach to underserved Houston-area students, provide free concerts for hospital patients and staff throughout the Texas Medical Center, raise awareness about other medically related charities, and serve the Houston community with affordable and accessible concerts. TMCO orchestra members are entirely volunteer, dedicating countless hours to practice and performance in addition to their work responsibilities in the medical field and beyond.

In order to continue their outreach work of providing free concerts to hospital patients, free music lessons to students in need, and affordable concerts to all Houstonians, TMCO needs your help! In this 1st annual Run for TMCO fundraiser, our goal is to bring the community together for a 5K, 10K, and Half Marathon run on Saturday, October 18th at Rice University and raise $10,000 to help this amazing community orchestra continue its mission of service. 100% of funds raised will go directly to the Texas Medical Center Orchestra, a registered non-profit 501(c)(3). https://tmcorchestra.org
