Fenway Health Strides For Action Event

Fenway Health has rebranded AIDS Walk Boston into Strides For Action Walk & Run that takes place Sunday June 1st at Artesani Park in Boston, MA. In these challenging times this fundraising event is so crucial as HIV prevention funds are being gutted, access to gender affirming care is being threatened & critical research is under attack. Strides For Action is a way to pushback by joining community members, advocates & leaders for a 5K walk/run to support the future of healthcare for all. Jordina Shanks, Fenway Health CEO stated, “We’re excited to kick off Pride month with Strides For Action which promises to be a good time for folks of all ages & backgrounds. It’s a wonderful opportunity to come together & stand in solidarity for health equity for the communities we serve & is an important source of funding for the care & services our community needs & deserves.” Strides For Action Walk & Run registration begins June 1st at 8A followed by a speakers program. Then Reimagym fitness gym from Medford, MA will get participants moving & energized with a fun all-levels warm-up to kick off the walk/run on the right foot. The 5K run & walk starts at 9:45A & the event concludes with a wellness festival & entertainment by The Femmes an all-woman & non-binary band providing a high energy concert experience.
