WHY WE WALK
We walk on Saturday, May 18, 2019 in Warminster Community Park to raise awareness, to end the stigma that surrounds mental health, and to raise the funds necessary to support our education and support program expansion throughout Bucks County.
There is help, there is hope, and until there's a cure, there's NAMI!
Our fundraising goal: $50,000

Today, we are an association of local individuals and families who work in the community to raise awareness and provide support and education that was not previously available to those in need.
