Walk with us this fall
The Arthritis Walk® is the Arthritis Foundation’s annual nationwide event that raises awareness and funds to fight arthritis, the nation’s most common cause of disability. It is a tremendous opportunity to help improve the lives of the 46 million men, women and children doctor-diagnosed with arthritis.
Get your company involved or recruit friends and family members to form a team. Best of all, walk in honor of a loved one with arthritis and know you’re making a difference by raising funds to support Arthritis Foundation research, public health and public policy efforts to improve the lives of people with arthritis.
By registering for the 2009 Arthritis Walk, you are also becoming a part of Let's Move Together®, a nationwide movement led by the Arthritis Foundation. Let's Move Together® encourages people to move to prevent or treat arthritis.

Faces of Arthritis
This year we are featuring the "Faces of Arthritis" on the left menu bar of this page and along the Walk route. You'll notice that arthritis affects people without regard to ethnicity, gender, or age. Yes, children get arthritis, too, often the most serious types. If you have arthritis, or have a friend or loved one with the disease, please send us a picture so we can post it. Email photos to srhodes@arthritis.org.
