Help Carry the Weight

Together for Good's first annual ruck march is September 6 - 13, 2025!

Put on your backpack or weighted vest and walk to support vulnerable families and children at Together for Good's first annual Help Carry the Weight ruck march!

Throughout the week of September 6 - 13 2025, you can participate in a ruck march either as an individual or with a team comprised of your family or friends to raise funds for Together for Good (TFG). You get to decide the total amount that you raise and the mileage you ruck throughout the week!

New to rucking? That's okay! "Rucking" is simply walking with a weight on your back. All you need is a backpack or weighted vest and a route to walk.

We love the visual that rucking creates. The families you serve through TFG are carrying a weight of crisis. When one person has to carry that burden all by themselves, it is overwhelming and crushing. But what if we could shoulder some of their load? What if we could each take a little bit and carry them through their crisis? That is exactly what volunteers are doing through TFG. Each host family, advocate, and support volunteer are taking bits of the load and helping to carry families through difficulties. By participating in this event, you have the chance to physically shoulder a weight while raising funds to increase the amount of families that TFG can walk alongside.

Register a team and help carry the weight – because no family should walk alone.

Join Us for the Kick-Off!

We will kick off the week on September 6 with a family-friendly event! At the event you will walk a mile with other Help Carry the Weight ruckers, participate in activities, and meet people who are passionate about helping families and children in need. 

Note: You do not need to attend the event on September 6 to participate in Help Carry the Weight.
