About this run
Join the Eta Phi Beta Sorority, Incorporated, for the Gloria Chapmon Walk-A-Thon, a dynamic bi-annual event dedicated to making a difference in the lives of individuals with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (IDD). As the flagship initiative of our Sorority, this inspiring walk not only brings our community together but also serves as a vital fundraising opportunity for community-based organizations that advocate for and support individuals with IDD and their families. Held every two years during our national convention, the Gloria Chapmon Walk-A-Thon is more than just an event—it's a movement. By participating, you help create lasting change and empower those who need it most. We encourage you to consider forming a team to participate in the Walk and join us in raising awareness. Your donations may be tax-deductible. Your support will help strengthen the programs and services our foundation provides and will make a lasting impact on the lives of individuals with IDD. If you’re unable to join us for the In-Person Event, please consider the Virtual Event and still make a powerful impact. Together, let’s walk towards a brighter future for individuals with IDD! Join us in this meaningful journey and be a part of something truly impactful. As we stand by our motto, Not For Ourselves, But For Others®
