Mental Health Walk Raises Over $68,000 To Support Kansans

Posted on 06/20/2023

On May 20, Topeka Public Schools partnered with the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) Kansas Chapter to host the annual 2023 NAMIWalks Kansas Fundraiser at Topeka West High School.

The Mental Health for All Walk was a huge success, raising $68,008 to support NAMI Kansas programs and services that directly impact Kansans living with mental health issues.

We send a special thank you to all of the event sponsors and participants who made this possible as we work together to promote awareness of mental health, reduce stigma, raise funds for mental health programs, and build a community of support.
