I participated in my first NAMI Walks this past Saturday, June 1, 2024 in Johnson County, KS. Mental Health Awareness means so much to me. A few of my friends/family donated to my fundraiser. Overall, I was the 19th top fundraiser (out of 359) and 3rd top fundraiser on my work team (out of 142). That's pretty cool! I am thankful that my family/friends support me! Here is a little bit more about the walk and few pics from the event:
What is NAMIWalks? Better to ask, Who is NAMIWalks?
NAMIWalks is first and foremost about people, inspired individuals reaching out to each other, one authentic story at a time, to form a community of hope.
NAMIWalks is the walk that has no finish line…only countless new beginnings for the people we serve – as we raise funds to power NAMI’s life-changing free programs and fuel growing awareness of our cause.
NAMIWalks is a celebration, a shining time and place for you to declare: “I will not step down, I will not step away. I will be there with my community.”
No matter where we've been on our journey,
we know where we're going, together.
We are NAMIWalks.
