Event summary
Join us for the 2nd Annual Shine A Light On Stroke event on Saturday, May 10, 2025, in Newark, New Castle! This uplifting 5K run/walk is designed to raise awareness and support for stroke survivors and their caregivers in our community. As dedicated occupational and speech therapists, we recognize the vital need for resources and connection, and this event aims to bridge that gap by bringing together local businesses and individuals passionate about this important cause.
Participants will not only enjoy a day filled with community spirit but also contribute to a great mission. Proceeds from the event will directly benefit those affected by strokes, helping cover essential costs such as adaptive equipment, transportation to medical appointments, and communication aids. Together, we can make a significant difference in the lives of stroke survivors. Mark your calendar, gather your friends and family, and be part of this meaningful occasion!
