Volunteer to help with your nearby Team Hope Walk committee and help us create a great community event that funds our mission to improve the lives of those affected by Huntington’s disease! Committee volunteers always needed to help with logistics, recruitment and promotion, social media, kid’s activities leaders, raffle, food/drinks, registration and various other tasks. Everyone is welcome to volunteer-corporate groups, community service groups, schools, kids, seniors and all abilities. Contact us today to join in the fun!
We need help on the day of the walk, Oct 2nd from 9 to 1 pm and if possible we would love for anyone to help post flyers prior to the walk, build a walk team and collect pledges, or help get corporate sponsors for the walk. Ee will give you all the tools you need.

"This Land is Your Land"...
In 1967, the dynamic and determined Marjorie Guthrie launched an all-out assault on the disease that would soon claim her husband, music legend Woody Guthrie, and threatened their three children. Her extraordinary efforts turned her into a global voice in the fight against Huntington’s disease.
With over 50+ Volunteer led Chapter & Affiliates, volunteers are supporting families impacted by HD locally and across the nation!
Every year at our National Convention, these volunteers come together to learn about HD science and the movement they are making! We would love to welcome new faces and ideas.
