About 2026 Walk to Remember

Join us!

On Sunday, June 14, 2026, Reserve Care will host its annual Walk to Remember at the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo.  This uplifting, family-friendly event is an opportunity to honor the memories of loved ones who live on in our hearts.

The Walk to Remember is a meaningful fundraiser that helps cover the nearly $13 million in unreimbursed costs for essential services such as grief support, palliative care, pediatric care, and specialized programs for veterans.  Walkers can choose to follow a designated 1-mile route or just stroll and enjoy the day. We encourage walkers to create t-shirts to tell the story of their loved one.

This year, we are thrilled to celebrate the 15th anniversary of the Walk to Remember. It's a significant milestone, and we have some exciting surprises in store to make this year's event extra special. We can't wait to share these moments with you, your employees and all our supporters.

Registrations is $30 for adults and $15 for children ages 2-12.  Children under 2 are free of charge.

Registration includes all day admission to the Zoo, a commemorative 15th anniversary t-shirt, and more . . .
