I would like to pay by cash or check, not a credit card. How do I do that? If individuals want to send a check or cash instead of paying online, you can enter their information on our donation page and select “Donate with Offline Donation.” Money orders and checks can be sent to PO Box 564, Fort Washington, PA 19034 made payable to Brave Hearts for Strong Minds. Thank you!
Can I bring my children? Yes, absolutely! We will have some kid-specific activities, and our walk will be child-friendly.
Do I have to run/walk? Not at all! The walk is a casual, family-friendly event!
Where do donations go? Funds raised are used to support education funds for a chosen family that has lost a parent. Our 2025 recipients are Seamus & Blaise McKnight and Earl & Marion Morris! After each year, a new family (or families) is chosen, and the previous family is asked to “pay it forward.” If you know of a family that could benefit from our organization, please have them apply by clicking here. We will be sure to contact them once the application is received.
How long is the walk? The walk can be as long as you want to make it! But it is about one mile in length and does have some inclines.
I cannot walk but would like to fundraise. Is that possible? Yes! You are more than welcome to register and encourage others to donate without walking. You can also come and just enjoy the activities without walking.
What time does it start? We will begin walking around 10:00 AM at Chestnut Hill College (9601 Germantown Ave, Philadelphia, PA 19118). Registration opens at 9:00 AM. Children’s activities will be set up and available at 9:30 AM.
Do I have to register online? We encourage everyone to register online before our event on June 14, 2025. Pre-registration closes on May 23, 2025, which guarantees a t-shirt. Online registration will stay open until June 13, 2025, and in-person registration is available on the day of, but t-shirts are not guaranteed.
What if it rains? We are going to hold the event, rain or shine!
