We want to thank you for making our 11th Annual Walk and Inaugural 5K Run for Abilis such a success. Over 100 runners and 700 walkers came out to support Abilis on a beautiful fall day at Tod’s Point. It was a heart-warming community-wide celebration of inclusion and diversity and helped Abilis raise awareness of and vital funds for our programs and services.

The Walk/Run for Abilis marked the start of our 65th year as an organization and the launch of our new Abilis logo. If you were at the event and didn’t get one of our new Abilis car magnets, please stop by our Abilis Gift Shop and pick one up!

If you were one of the hundreds of individuals who donated to our event, we thank you. If you’d like to help us reach the 500 donor mark, please click here to make a contribution of any amount.

Please take a look at our photo gallery, which captures the energy and essence of our Walk/Run event. Relive memories of the day and get inspired for next year. We will be adding additional images over the coming days, so please check back for more pictures.

Thanks again for being an important part of our growing Abilis family!
