The Arkansas Affiliate of the Huntington’s Disease Society of America (HDSA) will host the Northwest Arkansas Team Hope Walk on Saturday, September 11th at 2:00 PM (CT) at Orchards Park. All proceeds support HDSA’s mission to improve the lives of people affected by Huntington’s disease (HD) and their families.
Team Hope is HDSA’s largest national grassroots fundraising event, which takes place in over 100 cities across the U.S. and has raised more than $20 million for HD since its inception in 2007. Thousands of families, friends, co-workers, neighbors and communities walk together each year to support HDSA's fight to improve the lives of people affected by HD and their families.
Today, there are approximately 41,000 symptomatic Americans and more than 200,000 at-risk of inheriting the disease. Press Release link: https://arkansas.hdsa.org/news/northwest-arkansas-team-hope-walk-to-support-hdsa Event link: https://arkansas.hdsa.org/about/northwest-arkansas-team-hope-walk
