This year, Spinal Samurai will be participating in its sixth Walk-n-Roll, an event that I hope to continue for many years. These walks are organized by the Spina Bifida Association, and are held throughout the country. Team Spinal Samurai participates in the Greater DC walks.
Before this year’s journey begins, I would like to thank everyone who participated in the walk last year, and everyone who generously donated. The support and encouragement of my family and friends has made all the difference. Being a part of the Walk- n- Roll is full-filling, but having you all by my side, makes it unforgettable. The memories made at these events are remarkable.
This walk is not only about me becoming more educated and growing as an individual, but most importantly is about spreading awareness and raising funds to find ways of improving the quality of life for all affected by Spina Bifida. These funds help to create support groups for the families, allow research in prevention, increases the possibility of a cure, and provide resources and medical help to those who need it.
So thank you again to everyone who participated, and I welcome all my family and friends to join this year and every year to come. I look forward to sharing this experience with more of you, and hope that you all open yourselves to this incredible event!
