About 2025 MCCP Walk

Lace up and join us for a powerful morning of unity and hope at the 38th Annual Maine Children’s Cancer Program Walk, powered by Shaw’s Supermarket at Portland’s Payson Park!
This isn’t just a walk—it’s a family reunion. A day where we gather as a community to uplift and support one another in the fight against childhood cancer and blood disorders.


Channel your inner superhero as we celebrate the true heroes—courageous children battling cancer and the families who walk beside them. Whether you’re sporting the cape of your favorite character or creating your own superhero persona to honor a loved one (or yourself!), this is your moment to stand boldly in the name of bravery.

By walking, you're doing more than taking steps—you’re bringing hope. Every stride and every dollar raised supports critical treatment, research, and wraparound care for children and families served by the Maine Children’s Cancer Program.

So, assemble your team, suit up, and join us for a morning filled with heart, community, and superhero spirit. Register today, start fundraising, and be a hero for a cause that truly matters!

P.S. Can’t make it to Payson Park? No problem! Become a Virtual Walker and join our superhero squad from wherever you are—whether it’s your neighborhood, a local trail, or even a treadmill. Every step counts when you're walking for our heroes.​​​

Bravery Beads are Back!

For the second year in a row, every Walker will have the option to choose a special beaded necklace—each color representing a personal reason for participating in the Walk.

  • Gold for those impacted by childhood cancer
  • Red for those impacted by a blood disorder
  • Green to show support for the mission of Maine Children’s Cancer Program.

Pick your color to share your story; regardless of the reason, together, we’ll be representing the bravery of each and every MCCP patient and their journey.
