Colors of Hope

This fun walk/run is intended to be a day to bring the community together to bring awareness, show support, display local resources available, help fund additional local programs, and have a wonderful time celebrating the hope we all have and can provide each other.

Each Color Station will feature a color/theme of a different aspect of mental health and will also have sponsor recognition, as well as an obstacle or something interactive. After the walk, we will host an After Party with a DJ, food, speaker(s), resource tables/giveaways, raffle prizes, and more fun to come.

We are thrilled to partner with NAMI, National Alliance on Mental Illness of Southern Ohio. All proceeds for this event will be going to NAMI with the goal of supporting programs/support in local Pickaway schools.

This event will not be possible without the support of our amazing community partners. Please see the volunteer and sponsor opportunities below and thank you so much for your continued support.
