2022 Hike for Hope Recap
The 2022 Hike for Hope on May 14 at Del Valle Regional Park broke both attendance and fundraising records with more than 1,300 registrants and over $180,000 in support raised for Hope Hospice’s patient care and community programs. The prior records were 702 hikers in 2011 and $114,758 in 2018.
Kudos to Team Myra Ann's 75th and Carrie Damschroder, the Top Fundraising Team ($5,175) and Individual ($550), respectively.
“We deeply appreciate the support from our East Bay community, especially during these economically challenging times” says Hope’s Director of Philanthropy Marc Rovetti. “Many participants join this event to honor the memory of a loved one. But a growing number of hikers have no direct connection to Hope Hospice—they’re community members who hear about our mission and our programs, and they fundraise to help support our cause. We can’t thank them enough.”
The 2023 event is tentatively planned for May 6. Registration will open in spring 2023 at TheHikeForHope.com.
