TS Alliance Walk-A-Thon

On Saturday, May 14th 2005 - The Rothberg Institute hosted a Step Forward walk to raise money for the TS Alliance. Starting on the Marina across the street, the 5K walk went to the town green and returned to the Institute where everyone enjoyed barbecue and music during a charity raffle and children's games.

In all we had well over 200 walkers and the current tally from sponsors exceeds $60,000 - overwhelming success, destined to be an annual event. Not only did we raise critical funding to help families with TS, but also heightened community awareness of both the Institute and TSC, bringing together many families with TSC & proving that this may be an orphan disease, but it has a face and a name as well. For additional donations, please see our website at justgiving.com
