Description: |
Join us for Helen's Walk 2012 a 5k/3.1 mile journey through our beautiful Sands Point neighborhood to support the Helen Keller National Center in our mission to enable each person who is deaf-blind to live and work in the community of their choice. Check-in and Registration 8:00AM-9:00AM. Official Start 9:15AM.
The students, staff and volunteers of the Helen Keller National Center invite you to join us for a short walk through beautiful Sands Point as we help raise funds for the programs and services that benefit people who live without sight and sound.
Your participation in Helen's Walk, either as a Walker or a Walk Sponsor, will make a difference in the lives of people who are deaf-blind by providing them with the supports and services they need to live a more independent lifestyle.
It is estimated that more than a million people in the United States live with combined vision and hearing loss, and those numbers are growing steadily. The largest increase will be among Baby Boomers who are losing vision and hearing through the aging process. Additionally, a fairly steady number of youth and adults are born, or become, deaf-blind every year due to premature birth, genetic causes and illness.
Register now and Helen Keller National Center will be well on the way to achieving its goal of raising $50,000. Thank you for your interest and support. |
