Harrisburg:  A huge thanks to everyone that made Saturday's Highmark Walk for a Healthy Community a success for Uplifting Athletes.  In our first year participating in the event, Uplifting Athletes exceeded our goal of raising more than $8,000, with pledges still coming in.  That money will help the more than 30-million Americans affected by a rare disease.  Despite a couple raindrops, more than 124 walkers represented Uplifting Athletes in the 5K and 1-mile walk.  We would like to thank everyone who walked and/or made a contribution to our cause.  The walk route was picturesque, taking participants around City Island and along the Susquehanna River in Harrisburg.  Uplifting Athletes was one of 35-organizations to particpate in the walk.

Also a big thanks to Highmark.  The event was well-organized.  We were thankful for the opportunity to set up a booth where people could learn more about our cause.  As an organization, we feel we educated quite a few people Saturday on our mission.  Together...We Are...Stronger!
