This past Saturday, June 8th, members of the PES team participated in the UPMC Children’s Hospital Foundation’s Walk for Children’s charity event. The event at Schenley Park included not just the walk itself, but also many other fun activities such as: a decoration station, ballon artists, and much more!
The walk itself included three walking options of ½ mile, 1 mile, and 2-mile courses; as well as a virtual option for participants that could not be at the actual event.
The Walk for Children’s event originated in 2016, and since that point the foundation has been able to raise over $6.5 million dollars. The event is the foundation’s largest fundraiser of the year, with this year’s total coming in at $995,724.43.
The PES team was able to raise over $25,000 towards the cause. If you would like to contribute, donations can still be made at the link below. Many thanks to the PES Outreach Committee for organizing our involvement and to anyone that donated or walked for the cause.
