Join us in making the Unite for Bleeding Disorders Walk a fun, welcoming, and successful event for our bleeding disorders community! The walk will take place at the North Park Swimming Pool, located at 9901 South Ridge Drive, McCandless, PA 15044.
We're looking for enthusiastic volunteers to help with a variety of roles before, during, and after the event. Whether you're helping with setup, registration, race support, photography, food service, or cleanup, your time and dedication will make a meaningful difference for our participants and their families.
Volunteer shifts vary in length, so whether you have an hour or can stay for the morning, we'd love to have you on our team. Thank you for helping us create a memorable day of community, awareness, and support!
