Manchester—More than 1,000 walkers laced up their sneakers for the 11th Annual “Walk With Me” on June 4 to raise nearly $100,000 for Easter Seals New Hampshire. The 5k twilight walk through downtown Manchester was carnival infused with cheerleaders, a dunk tank, and Mama Kicks playing live!
The money raised supports Easter Seals programs and services and ensures that all people with disabilities or special needs and their families have equal opportunities to live, learn, work and play in their communities. Easter Seals serves more than 29,000 children and adults throughout the state. |
