The Moving Message Walk/Wheel/Roll, a fundraising and awareness event to support work at The Aphasia Center at Russell Sage College, will be held Saturday, September 13, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Sage’s Albany campus, 140 New Scotland Ave., Albany. It is open to the public.
Admission is $15 per person (free for kids ages 10 and younger). Registration is requested but not required. The Moving Message is a festival-like event, complete with a one-mile walk, motivational speeches by those with Aphasia, music, raffles, kids’ activities, vendors, artists, food, messages and bios posted around the quad, and merchandise for sale.
The money raised at the event goes into a fund called The Moving Message Fund. This fund was created due to a significant need in our community. Often when someone has a stroke, traumatic brain injury, or other neurological disorder that interferes with their ability to communicate, there is little financial support for the long-term support they need.
This support could fund group sessions, communication devices, communication and other apps, and/or other supports/services necessary to enhance communication and quality of life.
