💙 Why We Walk/Run
All proceeds benefit Every Child a Swimmer, a program dedicated to ensuring every child has access to life-saving swim lessons. Thanks to our generous partners, The NESPA Foundation will match every dollar raised—and The Bill Kent Foundation will double it again! That means your contribution is multiplied four times before going directly to fund swim lesson grants across the Northeast.
🌟 Your Participation Matters
Every stride helps children gain water safety education—saving lives and building lifelong swimmers. Come for the run, stay for the cause, and leave knowing you made a difference.
🚴 WITI Ride – Pedal for a Purpose!
Not a runner? No problem! Join the WITI Ride – Pedal for a Purpose and support Every Child a Swimmer from wherever you are. This virtual Peloton/spin/road ride happens alongside our in-person 5K—same mission, different pace.
Just like the walk/run, all proceeds are matched by The NESPA Foundation and The Bill Kent Foundation, multiplying your impact by four!
Clip in, ride with purpose, and help us make waves—on the road, in the studio, and in the water.
🌍 WITI Walk – Virtual
Can’t make it to Norristown? You can still be part of the movement! WITI Walk Virtual lets you complete your 5K anywhere—your neighborhood, a local trail, or even a treadmill.
Every dollar you raise is matched four times thanks to The NESPA Foundation and The Bill Kent Foundation, helping fund swim lessons right here in the Northeast.
Lace up, hit your favorite route, and walk (or run!) virtually to make waves for water safety. Together, we’ll ensure every child has the chance to learn this critical, life-saving skill.
