Description
Join us for the 2023 Brandon's House Counseling Center "Walk4Teens" Walk, and walk 5k to support free counseling for teens and families! We want to raise $20,000 to support mental health counseling for children and teens in our community.
The "Walk4Teens" walk will be held on Saturday, May 20th between the hours of 9:00 AM and 12:00 PM. This event is in-person at Sam Peden Community Park (3037 Grant Line Rd, New Albany, IN 47150). Registration opens at 8:45 AM.
How it works: The idea for our Walk-A-Thon is for the individual (you) to raise money by reaching out to friends, family and your community to donate toward YOUR walk! The goal is to raise at least $125 per a person. This is the cost of one counseling session for a teen at Brandon's House (remember it is always free to our clients!). You can do this solo, or as a group! Once registered, anyone can navigate to your name or your group's name on our RunSignUp page and donate directly toward your walk!
Special T-Shirts / Hoodies: To add a shirt / hoodie to your order, continue past the registration fee and before you reach checkout, the options will be available to you! Be sure to select the correct size. Shirts will be at event for pick up before the walkathon and available for pick up at Brandon's House office after the event, Shirts and hoodies ordered after May 1, 2023 will be available for pick up after the May 20th walk.
