The Kids-N-Hope Foundation raises over $27,000 during 2023 Rhapsody and Rhythm Walk-A-Thon & 5K

PHILADELPHIA, IL (April 24, 2023) — The Kids-N-Hope Foundation (“The Foundation”) recently raised over $27,000 during its virtual Rhapsody and Rhythm Walk-A-Thon & 5K this Spring. The 7-day virtual event invited participants to walk their 5K goal at their own pace while virtually fundraising throughout the event to raise funds to support children’s health and life services, including Music Therapy, throughout the Greater Philadelphia region.

Participants were able to join a team or participate as an individual to fundraise and meet their personal goal and help The Foundation reach its goal for this event. All proceeds are benefitting the Kids-N-Hope Foundation and the programs it supports, specifically enhancing children’s health and life services through pediatric music therapy at local hospitals and not-for-profit organizations.

“We are thrilled to have hosted another successful; Walk-A-Thon which raised over $27,000 as a result of our supporters, sponsors, and donors,” stated Bruce K. Foulke, Founder and Chairman of the Kids-N-Hope Foundation. “Although it seems like just yesterday that we started the Kids-N-Hope Foundation with a dream of helping local children through music therapy programs, we are proud of the continual contributions and the work being done to spread our Foundation’s impact on pediatric health. Thank you to everyone who participated and contributed to this event, and we look forward to growing our contributions to continue funding the amazing work our beneficiaries do every day for pediatric health and life services.”
