September is the time in Modesto to get out there, get active, and get your fundraising/philanthropic shoes on because we have so many incredible community walks coming up that support amazing organizations for important causes. From the fight against Alzheimer’s and cancer to suicide prevention, organized walks are planned all month long. These walks are so important to the communities they impact and those who benefit from the proceeds raised. Growing up, I walked Relay for Life every year for my grandmother, Vivian, and first grade teacher, Arlene Berry, and the powerful emotion of being involved in these walks fills you with hope and gratitude for the future.
Check out the list below to register and learn more about how you can support! Can’t make the walk, but want to be involved? Follow one of the links below to donate to support these incredible efforts!
