19 years ago, 300 people (mostly family of children going through treatment) showed up for the first ever ASK 5K & Fun Walk. It has since grown to host over 1,000 participants per year and turns strangers into family. The Walk began as a way to invite the Richmond community into this struggle and to transform it into a celebration, but it has gone so much further than that. With kids on active treatment stopping everything just to walk across that finish line, this event has become the heart of ASK.
