Walk N Roll Fun Run

Our mission is personal.

We want to help 10,000 families access the resources their children need to reach their full potential. We are dedicated to filling the gap where insurance doesn’t cover the medically necessary therapies and equipment kids with disabilities need. We know firsthand how much these tools can change a child’s life, and we’re passionate about making that possible for others. Together, we’re turning challenges into opportunities, one family at a time!

What to expect at the event: Walk N Roll fun run, incredible giveaways and raffles, vendors we love + support & so much more!

Start times: Fun Run - 7:30am; 5K - 7:50am
