SAA is halfway to our Walk Your AS Off fundraising goal of $10,000! Walk Your AS Off Thursday Check-In - 5/22/25. There is about a week remaining in May, and this is a great time to take a moment to ask your supporters to help SAA with educational, advocacy, support, and awareness efforts that benefit the AS community. Every dollar helps in the fight against AS! Thanks to everyone who has helped so far! For those of you walking for other international organizations, please keep up the good work! If you are a team captain or leader, please be sure to go into your account to approve pending walkers. Keep adding your steps! Make sure that steps are logged in before the end of the month. SAA has lots of fun swag. Be sure to lace up with orange shoelaces and wear your shirt to promote awareness. The walk is year-long! Keep stepping all year to earn your million-step medal. They are so cool (and heavy!) Stay healthy and keep finding your happy pace!
