Pound the Pavement for Peter is a 5K Family Fun Run around the Brookhaven Neighborhood. It was started in 2009 in honor of Peter Hopkins, who, suffering from a Peroxisomal Disorder (PBD), lived his life with many disabilities, and eventually lost his life at age 3. This is event is held to raise awareness and funds to help families and children with disabilities and debilitating diseases.
This year the proceeds for the race will support: The Global Foundation for Peroxisomal Disorders (www.thegfpd.org), The Adaptive Learning Center (www.adaptivelearningcenter.org), and the Medically Complex Care Program at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta (www.choa.org).
