Barco's Nightingales Foundation Walk for Children

Barcos Nightingales Walk for Kids is a 5k (3.1 mile) walk that is designed to raise funds for children with medical needs in honor of nurses. Our Goal this year is to be able to send 50 kids with cancer to Camp Ronald McDonald for Good Times®, donate 200 surgeries to ReSurge for kids with cleft palates or burns, and to build 2 solar water wells in Haiti. All donations of $25 or more will be entered into our raffle for an iPad2 - one entry per person. Please join us and help kids in need. Registration is from 7am and the walk starts at 8am.


Visit our website at http://barcosnightingales.org/walk-for-kids/ to buy tickets or to make a donation. Please visit our Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/events/162707257212637/ for more information and please like the page and leave a comment for support while you’re there.
