WALK BY FAITH
EPIC's 14th Annual Walk-a-Thon
Friday, October 7, 2022Our annual walk-a-thon was held on Friday, October 7, 2022. Thanks to you, it was an enormous success, raising over $30,000 for our school! Please check back in the summer for information about next year's walk.

The 2022-23 theme is Walk by Faith. The walk-a-thon is our No. 1 fundraiser of the year! By appealing to parishioners, the Hamilton community, and the families and friends of our students, this event regularly raises $30,000—monies that go toward vital school operations, capital improvements, field trips, classroom support, and much more. Over the past few years, for example, monies raised via the walk-a-thon have been used to air-condition the school and make critical updates to the school building helped us to operate safely throughout the pandemic.
