Organiser's description

Join us virtually! Get family and friends to walk in support of Friedreich's Ataxia!

A Walk For Those Who Cant is a 5K to help raise funds for those impacted by Friedrichs Ataxia (FA), a rare, uncurable disease inherited at birth. Even with intensive care, FA becomes a deadly disorder that destroys nerves, impairs motor skills (including the ability to walk), leads to heart complications, and loss of speech. Most Friedrichs Ataxia victims do not live past their 35th birthday.

Broad Ripple Park, 1426 Broad Ripple Ave., Indianapolis, 46220, IN, United States
