Thank you!

The first annual Gavin's Gallop 5K was an incredible success, and we are so grateful to everyone who helped make it possible.

From our runners and walkers to our sponsors, volunteers, donors, and community supporters, thank you for showing up and supporting families affected by Batten disease. Because of your generosity, we were able to raise funds that will help provide support and resources to families facing this devastating diagnosis.

Most importantly, thank you for helping us honor Gavin and bring greater awareness to Batten disease.

We loved seeing so many smiling faces at Freeman Lake, and we're already looking forward to next year!

Here are a few photos and videos from the day!
