Walk for the Cure with Miami Gardens

A childhood cancer diagnosis can be a devastating blow for any family. But they do not have to be alone in their fight against the disease. Helping families of children battling cancer, the Miami Gardens community will gather this Saturday for the K-Faith Cure Cancer Walk, from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Rolling Oaks Park.

Led by City Councilman Rodney Harris, the K-Faith Cure Cancer Walk will balance between family fun and all-around health and wellness, in addition to the fundraising walk. Participants can enjoy live music with fun dancercise and walk-a-cise sessions, appropriate and enjoyable for all ages. Families can also benefit from available wellness checks.

For the walk, a $20 donation per youth walker and $25 donation per adult walker is welcomed. All proceeds collected from the fundraising walk will be donated to the St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital. St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is the first and only National Cancer Institute-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center devoted solely to children.
