Journey Forward Hosts 2nd Annual “Making Steps Walk”
Charity Walk Benefiting Local Spinal Cord Rehab Center Returns to Canton
Who: Journey Forward, a non-profit organization dedicated to bettering the lives of those who have suffered Spinal Cord injury through an intense exercise program.
What: Journey Forward is proud to announce the return of their 2nd annual Making Steps Walk taking place Saturday, October 15. The 1.25 mile walk is an inspirational journey raising funds for those fighting to prove doctors and medical professionals wrong by regaining movement and function to come closer to their goal of walking again.
Journey Forward founder and rehabilitation success story Dan Cummins, will be leading the walk beginning at Journey Forward’s Canton location. Cummins was a true inspiration to those battling Spinal Cord injuries last year by achieving his ultimate goal. “Last year I walked my first mile since breaking my neck and being told I would never walk again ten years earlier,” says Cummins. “This year I will be going for 1.25 miles, continuing to build on the progress I have achieved through Journey Forward’s innovative rehabilitation program and raising money so others can receive the same outstanding care I have.”

About Journey Forward
Journey Forward is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization dedicated to bettering the lives of those who have suffered a Spinal Cord Injury through an intense exercise program. We work with Spinal Cord Injured clients of all levels and abilities in a very active and full body approach. This is what separates Journey Forward from many other adaptive gyms. Many of the gyms that center on working with individuals with disabilities tend to focus only on the clients abilities and don't work with the affected areas. We at Journey Forward focus on the clients weaknesses and work on coordinating the entire body in a very functional and complete style.
