Description

We are two Delaware Occupational and Speech Therapists who are planning the 2nd Annual Stroke Awareness 5k Run/Walk event.

We have identified a need for support and awareness in our community for stroke survivors and their caregivers.

Our hope is to connect this wonderful community with local businesses and resources to shed a light on this important cause.

Proceeds from this race will go towards supporting individuals who have sustained a stroke and covering extraneous expenses.

Some of these costs can include but are not limited to: adaptive equipment to improve safety and quality of life, mobility related DME, transportation to and from appointments, speech generating devices, and thickener secondary to dysphagia. 

Since last year’s race we have officially become a nonprofit. Check out our website at www.shinealightonstroke.org and our social media @shinealightonstroke (Facebook and Instagram).
