Unfortunately we don't have a walk everywhere we'd like, but if none of our walks are close enough you can still be a part of the cause by signing up for the Virtually Everywhere Walk.
For the Virtually Everywhere walk, you and your team create the experience. You may want to hold your own walk or some other sort of event or events. Or you may simply want to fundraise on-line through firstgiving.com/nf. Of course, you could to both.
The idea is to raise funds and more importantly to raise awareness while competing (in a friendly way) against other "virtual teams". As the competition heats up we'll let you know the standings of the various teams.
Sign up early and a create a team to start raising funds and awareness. We'll help you every STEP of the way! This is a new event and can be whatever you make of it. If you need more information please give us a call at 630.932.8111.
