We hope you can still support this event. HSC relies heavily on the money raised through fundraising events. Your continued support at this difficult time will ensure we are still able to provide funding to world-leading research into treatments for Huntington disease, as well as vital support services to individuals and families affected by Huntington disease.
All donations and contributions made to our event before September 30 are still matched by an anonymous donor dollar for dollar!
If you have questions, please reach out to stevenmbeatty@gmail.com or the National Office Events Team at events@huntingtonsociety.ca or review HSC’s website.

As we are unable to come together physically this year due to COVID-19, it is more important than ever to rally as a community and support the families of Huntington disease.
We will be walking on the same day to make this a community event that we can do independently in support of the Huntington Society of Canada (HSC). Under current provincial guidelines, we encourage you to invite up to 100 friends and family, at appropriate social distance, to walk with you in your neighbourhood.
We would love to see everyone share their photos through social media as you complete your walk. Use the hashtag #BarrieWalk4HD and don't forget to wear an HD T-Shirt or other outfit so your neighbours know what you're up to!
Date: October 17, 2020
Location: Your own neighbourhood!

2. Funding Family Services workers across Canada to provide support for those affected by HD
3. Raising awareness of HD, educating the public and health services professionals, as well as advocating for the rights of those affected by HD
