Kids Escaping Drugs (KED) is excited to announce its upcoming 25th Walk for Kids, to be held on May 13th at South Park Lake. The event aims to raise awareness and funds to support adolescents and families to live a life free from the disease of addiction through community outreach, education and early intervention.
The walk will be a 1.5 mile loop through Buffalo Olmstead’s South Park Lake starting at 10am. Participants can register individually or as a team and can start fundraising as soon as they register. All funds raised will directly support KED and the Face2Face Program.
Each year, our Face2Face Program delivers critically important information to over 40,000 community members. This year alone they’ve provided over 64 interventions, 170 presentations, visited 70 schools across 5 counties and have served over 20,000 individuals.
KED’s Walk for Kids is open to everyone and is an opportunity for middle, high school and college students to come together in an effort to potentially support their peers and community. We encourage everyone to come out and participate in this fun and meaningful event.
Registration for the walk is now open. To register, please visit www.ked.org or contact Dana McPhaden at dmcphaden@ked.org. We also encourage participants to create their own team fundraising page to share with friends, family and coworkers.
Thank you for your support in helping us achieve our mission.
