2021 New England Walk-N-Roll for Spina Bifida

Join the Spina Bifida Association of Greater New England for the annual Walk-N-Roll for Spina Bifida! This virtual event will take place throughout the month of July, but you can start fundraising as soon as you complete your registration! Sign up as a team leader and raise funds for SBAGNE programming in your own neighborhood, family, or friend circle.

We invite you to fully participate in this year's virtual Walk-N-Roll by wearing teal and walking with your family and friends in your neighborhood, local park, community track, or other location. Share photos of your walk on our Facebook Event Page. You can even use our Spotify playlist to keep the good vibes flowing!

Throughout the month of July, we will host a variety of programs and activities that will not only help you fundraise, but also offer the community education and support that our in-person Walk-N-Roll typically brings. We'll host virtual roundtable discussions, offer weekly raffles, kids crafts and games, fundraising prompts, and more!

This year, you can receive 2021 Walk-N-Roll t-shirts for you and your team members by raising a minimum of $200 (up to 10 t-shirts) OR you can elect to order a 2021 Walk-N-Roll t-shirt customized with your team's design on the back through our apparel partner, Will Enterprises for an additional cost. Make your selection when you register on Race Roster.

ABOUT WALK-N-ROLL

Walk-N-Roll is a family-friendly, non-competitive, one-mile walk event and educational resource fair that raises awareness and celebrates the accomplishments of the more than 180,000 Americans living with spina bifida. Proceeds are used to support local community programs and services for all affected by spina bifida. The name "Walk-N-Roll" was selected because it embodies a sense of inclusiveness and invokes the sense of empowerment which the spina bifida community embraces in all that it does.
