About Walking For a Friend 

Annual 5K Fundraiser: Support Cancer Patients and Families

Since 2020, our community has come together each year for the Walking For a Friend 5K, our annual fundraiser dedicated to providing comfort, hope, and support to those impacted by cancer. This annual event is our primary fundraiser, supporting essential programs and services for cancer patients.

 

Project Kennedy relies on the support and participation of people like you to carry out its mission. Your involvement is vital to making a meaningful impact on their journey.

​

Proceeds from the 5K directly fund Project Kennedy's key initiatives:​

  • Dare to Kare: Offering vital services like prepared meals, cleaning services, and emotional care.

  • Ken's Care Baskets: Providing comfort and joy through thoughtfully assembled baskets.

  • Direct Financial Assistance: Offering crucial financial support for medical expenses and other needs.​​​

You can also support our mission by donating directly to Project Kennedy or making a purchase from our store
