This fall, join us for a heartwarming and impactful challenge: Harvesting Hope—a fun, family-friendly distance challenge that supports Prader-Willi and Schaaf-Yang syndrome research.
How It Works
No matter where you are, your pace, or your fitness level, you can join in! Simply log your miles on Strava from October 10th through Thanksgiving Day.
Whether you're a seasoned runner or enjoy a casual stroll, every step you take makes a difference. As you rack up those miles, invite your friends and family to sponsor your journey and donate to support life-changing research. Plus, thanks to a generous donor, every dollar you raise will be doubled—making your impact go even further!
Why Join?
- Support a meaningful cause: By participating in Harvesting Hope, you're directly funding groundbreaking research to improve the lives of those affected by PWS and SYS.
- Promote health and wellness: This challenge is a perfect opportunity to get moving, spend time with loved ones, and prioritize your well-being—while making a difference.
- Create a new Thanksgiving tradition: Go beyond the dinner table this year! Make Harvesting Hope a tradition that combines fitness, giving, and gratitude for a more meaningful holiday season.
Hear from Real Trotters:
-
Kimberly Cary, mom to Teddy:
"Harvesting Hope was fun and easy! It was a great way to have Teddy involved in the process too—we love walking together! I even found myself bringing walking shoes to the office to get one more mile in at lunch. That thought process sums up Teddy’s journey—one step at a time. Every mile and milestone is an achievement worth celebrating.”
Team Teddy logged over 100 miles for SYS research in last year's challenge!
- Bethany Cheney, mom to Parker:
“Parker enjoys walking for exercise and liked having a goal that bound us to doing it every day and having a routine. A highlight was that the fundraiser ran through Thanksgiving and she had the opportunity to walk a Turkey Trot 5k on Thanksgiving Day and share that walk with her whole family.”
Parker logged over 70 miles for PWS research in last year's challenge!
