fundraising

Join us for our 2nd Annual #PromiseWalk on Saturday, August 28, 2021 from 11am-1 pm, at First Energy Stadium.  All of the proceeds from the event will support Family Promise of Berks County.  Our mission is to help families and youth experiencing homelessness achieve sustainable independence through a community-based response.

This event is fun for all ages–kids and pets too! Enjoy exercise and fun with your family and friends. Form a team, walk individually or with your pet to raise funds.

Online registration is only $25 per person. You will receive a t-shirt, admission to the Latin Fest (happening right after the Promise Walk at the same location) and be entered to win a Samsung TV! You and your sponsors can donate more to help motivate you to the finish line, whether you walk, jog, or sprint to the goal.

Miss connecting with family and friends? Form a team and invite other households to join you – all in the spirit of coming together to help local families and youth in need. Can’t join us in person? Join us virtually and share your videos and pictures on social media.

Teams can share their progress by uploading videos and pictures daily on their team site. Inspire others and watch to see which team will take the lead!

Not ready to run? Sponsor your favorite team and contribute towards the finish line as a Walker, Jogger, or Sprinter.

Prizes that support local businesses will be awarded to the top fundraisers in the following categories: Individual, Team, and Most Creative Video or Picture.

Join us at the FirstEnergy Stadium Saturday, August 28th from 11am -11:30am for registration and 11:30-12:30 for the Promise Walk, followed by an announcement of the prize winners and to hear more about Family Promise of Berks County.  Immediately following the Promise Walk, the Latin Fest will begin at the FirstEnergy Stadium-stay and enjoy Latin music and food, drinks, games and raffles!
