NAMIWALKS Your Way

NAMI: National Alliance on Mental Health, NAMIWALKS is a fundraiser to raise awareness of mental health. NAMI walk consists of teams walking towards a 5k route. This year is a bit different since COVID-19 has reached the shores of the United States.

Why they walk?

  • Promote Awareness of mental health and reduce stigma by sharing stories and walking together
  • Fundraiser for NAMI’S mission of advocacy, education, support, and public Awareness.
  • Build a community to let people know they are not alone

At South Sound, we plan to raise as much as we can to help reach their goal of $275,000. Participate in some of the activities to help give back.

  • Casual Day Friday, Sept 4th and 11th $5/pp each day
  • Silent Bid for Front Row Parking – Receive one week of front row parking. The highest SEVEN bids will win one week of front row parking from September 21st- 25th 2020.
  • Flower/Candy Gram- Purchase a flower/candy for your “Work Battle Buddy” to show a co-worker appreciation with a message of encouragement.
  • Donate for Mental Health CHANGE- empty all your change from your cars, bags, pockets, and donate to support Mental Health Stigma Change!
