Special Events - Fun Walk

PHA logo with legsEach year more members of our PH community are organizing special events to raise funds and awareness for research and patient-serving programs. One of the easiest and most popular events is Fun Walk for a Cure. We’ve created a handbook that takes you step-by-step through the planning process, including chapters like:

What does it take?

  • Time
  • People power

Top things to do:

  • Find a Location
  • Set a Time and Date
  • Develop the Program, Gather Supplies
  • Recruit Volunteers
  • Invite Participants
  • Get Press
  • Get Sponsors
We’ve also included sample co-sponsor letters, a sample budget, and sample press materials. Ideas in the handbook are based off of the experiences and lessons learned from past PHA member-led Fun Walks. We’ve also sprinkled inspiring quotes and pictures along the way. This handbook is a turnkey tool that can help you make a difference in your own community. We hope you join the dozens of PHA volunteers already planning to host a Fun Walk in their community this fall!

For more information and to get started with your Fun Walk kit, contact PHA's Special Events Coordinator at event@PHAssociation.org or 301-565-3004 x125.
