This Sunday, Walk or Run to Raise Awareness, End Fear of Brain Aneurysms
Hanover, MA (PRWEB) September 12, 2014 -- Please join Philadelphia’s inaugural Brain Aneurysm Awareness Event benefiting the renowned Brain Aneurysm Foundation this Sunday, September 14, 2014 at the Edgewood Park Boathouse at FDR Park, which is located at 1500 Pattison Avenue in Philadelphia.
Registration for the event begins at 8:00am and the 4-mile run/1-mile walk kicks off promptly at 9:00am. Registration to participate is only $30. All proceeds from this event go directly to the Brain Aneurysm Foundation. Also, there is free parking for all—participants, volunteers and spectators.
This inaugural run/walk is a collaborative effort in recognition of the Brain Aneurysm Foundation’s 20th Anniversary and the longstanding relationship with Jefferson Hospital for Neuroscience. Join the Philadelphia Chapter and Support Group and help raise much needed brain aneurysm awareness. Create a team and fundraise to honor the memory of a loved one lost or celebrate a survivor. Again, all funds raised directly benefit the mission of the foundation providing education, awareness, support and research funding for brain aneurysms.
Help raise awareness and end fear. For more information please contact Jill Galvao at Jill(dot)Galvao(at)jefferson(dot)edu.
Now celebrating 20 years of service, the Brain Aneurysm Foundation was established in 1994 in Boston, Massachusetts with a mission to promote early detection of brain aneurysms by providing knowledge and raising awareness of the signs, symptoms and risk factors; work with the medical communities to provide support networks for patients and families; as well as to further research that will improve patient outcomes and save lives.
