We’re thrilled to be coming back again to Heritage Park in Canton running/walking for 22 hours. We do this for 22 hours to represent the 20-22 veterans per day who die from suicide in the U.S. This is a walker friendly event, with all participants joining at their desired time, pace, and duration.
In 2024, we raised $7,500 and split 80% between Michigan Freedom Center, Guitars for Vets, and Victory Gym. In 2023, we raised over $5,000 with 80% of the proceeds split between Guitars for Vets and Victory Gym. In 2022, Steve raised over $3,000 with more than 90% of the donations received directed to Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund.
