9th Annual PA Hero Walk

Back in 2009 we never imagined that the PA Hero Walk would be leaving the steps of the Philadelphia Art Museum nine years later. But here we are, eight years older, with the same intense passion to show Pennsylvania that we care about our veterans. Our goal this year, like every year, is to demonstrate the sacrifice that our men and women in uniform make for our freedom by taking two weeks and walking 320 miles. We also plan on raising $300,000 this year for our veterans!

Where do you fit into the PA Hero Walk? You can make a monetary donation to help our veterans. You can show your support by joining us in a segment of the walk in June. You can join us in one of the many towns along the route that hold a celebration for us and our veterans. Or you can just say hello as we walk along our 320 mile trail.

For more info on dates and times, please read through our website, www.paherowalk.com or call Dave Rapacchietta - President at 412-915-4956
