Red Deer's 4th Road to Recovery Walk set for Oct. 3, aims to top $150,000
The free 3 km walk outside CrossRoads Church supports the Red Deer Dream Centre's addiction recovery programs for men.
The Red Deer Dream Centre will host its fourth annual Road to Recovery Walk on Oct. 3, starting outside CrossRoads Church. Registration for the 3 km walk is free, and every participant will receive a free pancake breakfast.
Organizers are hoping to surpass last year's fundraising total of $150,000. Proceeds go toward day-to-day operations at the Dream Centre, including beds, meals, and support services for men in recovery.
Peter Davyduck, the centre's marketing and fund development lead, said the walk funds essential programming while also serving as an annual community gathering to show support for those in recovery. He said signing up gives hope to men entering recovery and helps the centre assist individuals in reconnecting with their families and becoming contributing members of the community.
People interested in participating can register online through the Red Deer Dream Centre.
