National Walk

Don't have a local walk happening near you? Sign up here to participate on your own, wherever you are, as we walk virtually for Huntington disease (HD) this May. We join all of the Huntington Society of Canada Chapters for the National Walk this May. ​​ We are encouraging all participants to walk with us on the last weekend of May, May 25-26. When we come together we can do amazing things! 

​
Our collective efforts will help to raise funds and awareness for HD not only at a local level, but all across Canada. Together we can make a difference!

ALL DONATIONS AND CONTRIBUTIONS MADE TO THIS EVENT WILL BE MATCHED BY AN ANONYMOUS DONOR DOLLAR FOR DOLLAR!
