GREAT STRIDES is the CF Foundation’s largest fund-raising event. It provides opportunities for all people within a local community to get involved forming teams through their workplace, through clubs and organizations or with friends and family. Walk day is a fun, family-oriented celebration that includes a healthy 10 kilometer (6.2 miles) walk, Kids’ Corner activities, food, and festivities that participants look forward to year after year.
