Our Rhode Island Friendship Walk was a huge hit! We raised over $54,000 that will go straight to helping fund our amazing school chapters statewide. The day was full of dancing, singing, laughing, and sun! We would not have been able to do it without Rhode Island showing up in full force!<\/p>\n

Thank you to all our sponsors for the Rhode Island Friendship Walk! A big shout out to our presenting sponsor, PLAN of MA and RI, and our additional sponsors, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Rhode Island, Make Someone Happy, Touro Fraternal Association, Navigant Credit Union, Ballet RI, Hope Global, True Training Studio, RI Realtors, and Studio 47 Pilates!\"Spring<\/p>\n

Our second walk of the season was our Central MA Friendship Walk! They absolutely crushed it by raising over $60,000! This money will have a huge impact on the schools and communities in the surrounding areas! It was a fun day at Polar Park full of friendship and inclusion!<\/p>\n
