Description

Mary Cariola’s biggest “grassroots” event – "Walking on Sunshine" - involving families, staff, and friends, is coming up on Sunday, September 22, 2024 at Veteran’s Memorial Park.  We expect more than 1,000 walkers for this family-friendly event, which will support children with complex, multiple disabilities.

We are reaching out to our friends in the business community to ask that they consider supporting this special event.  

A very important part of this year’s event will be a raffle. The raffle adds to the excitement of the walk and provides you with the opportunity to promote your products and services to our guests.  Our success is largely driven by the merchandise we have available to raffle off.  We’d be honored to welcome your business as a raffle donor to this year’s Walking on Sunshine and are asking you to consider donating products, gift certificates or services for this event. 

Mary Cariola serves more than 450 children each day providing them with individualized programs and innovative therapies.  The children come from ten counties and 50 school districts. 

Thank you very much for considering this request.
