Central Florida’s First HopeWalk
HopeKids Central Florida is hosting its first-ever HopeWalk, and the whole community is invited! Grab your family and friends and join us for a one-mile walk in support of families who have a child with a life-threatening medical condition. Once you cross the finish line, the fun keeps going with activities, games, food, crafts, and plenty of ways for kids and adults alike to get in on the fun.
The HopeWalk is about more than a good time. It’s a chance to walk alongside these families, cheer them on, and raise funds so HopeKids can continue providing the free events, activities, and support community they rely on.
There are plenty of ways to be part of the walk, whether you start or join a team, make a donation, or become a sponsor. Whichever way you choose to get involved, you’ll be making a real difference for Central Florida families.
