What a Unite Walk weekend!

On September 26 and 27, our community filled the Akron Zoo and the Columbus Zoo. Together, you raised $87,836 for Ohio families living with bleeding disorders.

Team Akron raised $50,059, met its $50,000 goal, and took home the first-ever Director's Cup. Team Columbus raised $37,776 and made huge strides all weekend. The lion will be back!

Thank you to every walker, volunteer, donor, and HTC team who showed up. Every step mattered, on the path and before it.

And a big thank you to our sponsors for helping make it all possible:

CSL
Novo Nordisk
Sanofi

๐Ÿ’ง Drops of Wisdom ๐Ÿ’ง

What a season! From camp at Flying Horse Farms to our Unite Walks, you showed up for each other in big ways. Every step, every dollar, and every cheer made a difference.

Thank you, GOBDF family. โค๏ธ

Cleveland had a big weekend. So did we. ๐Ÿ†

Guardians clinched the AL Central, Buckeyes handled Illinois, Browns closed it out with a win. And our own scoreboard looked pretty good too, Akron sitting at 99%, Columbus at 74%, both teams put in real work under beautiful weather.

Tonight's the last call for our anonymous donor's match, every gift still doubles. $15, about what you'd spend on a hot dog and a drink at the game, funds medical assistance, dental care, and emergency support for Ohio families.

Give what a game-day snack costs! When you give, WE ALL WIN!!

What a weekend. Thank you to everyone who walked, volunteered, cheered, and gave in Akron and Columbus. This community shows up, and it shows up long after the tents come down.

More photos and highlights coming soon. ๐Ÿ’›

โฐ Last call. Registration for both walks closes today at noon.

Can't make the deadline? You can still register same-day at either zoo, just without a guaranteed pre-ordered shirt. And good news either way: the match is still running, every gift through Sunday night gets doubled, dollar for dollar, up to $2,000.

Lace up, set your watch, let's go.

We found something HUGE in the jungle. ๐Ÿ‘€

An anonymous donor is matching every gift, dollar for dollar, up to $2,000, through Sunday night. We have absolutely no idea who it could be. ๐Ÿ˜ (No idea. None. Totally a mystery.)

Registration for both walks closes tomorrow at noon, but donations, and the match, run through Sunday. Double your impact while it lasts.

Will we see you there?
