Charles River Center VIRTUAL 5K Run/1Mile Walk

Will's Warriors are back! The Warriors are walking in this year's Charles River Center virtual 5k/1mile walk to show our love and support for this great organization that serves over 950 families in our community. We happen to be one of them! This year Maddie's awesome Girl Scout troop and their families have come together to support our family and this local nonprofit so near and dear to our hearts. We will be walking 1 mile as a team (with Willy leading the charge!) next Friday in what we hope will be a glorious evening stroll concluding with smiles and popsicles.

About Charles River Center VIRTUAL 5K Run/1Mile Walk
In an effort to adhere to social distancing measures while keeping the tradition alive for the 10th annual Charles River Center 5K Run/1Mile Walk, we are taking this year's event virtual from September 20th-September 27th, 2020. The Charles River Center is a nonprofit social service agency that has been providing advocacy and a variety of services to children and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families since 1956. Our mission is to empower and support people with developmental disabilities by offering high-quality, individualized opportunities that foster independence and community inclusion. We currently serve more than 950 children and adults with developmental disabilities such Down syndrome, autism and cerebral palsy. Our organization operates 26 group homes and apartments, provides day programs for those with significant needs, offers vacation and after school programs for children, and provides vocational training and job placement. Charles River serves individuals in Needham, Newton, Wellesley, Dedham, Natick, Framingham and beyond.
