Rather than raising money, group’s walk-a-thon tries to create compassion

Be The Cause, a community of individuals that creates enriching opportunities of service, hosts its annual Walk for Hope to help create more compassion in the world and raise awareness about various local and global humanitarian causes. The Walk for Hope is unlike any other walk-a-thon in that its main purpose is to unite the community by spreading more compassion in the world.
The entire 2.2-mile route is graced with hundreds of inspirational hand-crafted quotes representing the best of modern and ancient wisdom, with interactive activity stations along the route that promote global consciousness coupled with “be the change” action. Local organizations set up booths at the starting and ending locations to represent heartfelt causes throughout the world. The event also features live international entertainment, a complimentary commemorative t-shirt and more. The Walk can also be optionally used as a vehicle for raising community awareness about a favorite nonprofit group.
This event, which is free to the public, will be Saturday, Oct. 16, from 9am to noon at El Dorado Park, 7550 E. Spring St. Walkers may register at bethecause.org.
