Charles County Commissioner President Candice Quinn Kelly invites the public to attend the “Walk with Purpose” event on Saturday, August 25, starting at 8 a.m., at the Indian Head Rail Trail in White Plains.
The purpose of the August 25 walk is to ensure that our students get a good start this school year! Educating our children and preparing them for the future is one of the most important things we will do as parents. Every child deserves a good healthy start. School supplies can be very expensive, and you can help make sure every child has the supplies needed. Let’s walk to support our children. Please bring school supplies to donate to the Children’s Aid Society for needy children.
This is the first in a series of walks to bring attention to important causes in Charles County. If you have an issue that you would like to feature, please contact me at KellyC@CharlesCounty.org.
Future events are scheduled to be held as follows:
- Saturday, September 29, 8 a.m. at the Indian Head Rail Trail, To Benefit Southern Maryland Food Bank
- Saturday, October 27, 8 a.m. at Indian Head Rail Trail, Halloween Parade / To Benefit The Catherine Foundation
