Thank You! Miles for West Plains
We’re excited to share that our recent Walkathon Fundraiser was a success! The day was packed with energy, laughter, and plenty of teamwork as friends and families gathered to make it unforgettable.
Some of the highlights of the day:
- More than 100 participants took part in the event, representing a diverse range of ages and exemplifying a strong sense of community spirit.
- Raising the Bar: Thanks to some seriously generous donations, we collected $16,500—exceeding our expectations.
- Good Vibes All Around: Our amazing volunteers made sure everyone felt at home from start to finish.
All money collected from the Walkathon Fundraiser will go directly towards supporting the foundation’s efforts to build the new Westwood Cultural Center. Every contribution is vital as we believe that the expanded centre will have a significant and positive impact within our community.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to all the walkers, volunteers, sponsors, and supporters who made our first Walkathon Fundraiser a success. Your enthusiasm, generosity, and dedication contributed significantly to making the event both enjoyable and memorable.
We are committed to keeping you informed as we progress with the development of the Westwood Cultural Center. We sincerely hope to see everyone at our future events—please stay tuned for updates on our next opportunity to come together.
