Hike For Discovery is about being in the great outdoors and helping people who are battling cancer.
This fall, we’re leading hiking trips to Rocky Mountain National Park, CO and Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park, MI. To prepare you for your hike, our professional Hike Leaders offer Saturday morning group trainings and clinics and equipment discounts at partner stores REI, Erehwon Mountain Outfitters and Whole Foods Market. Whether you’re a seasoned hiker or someone who just enjoys a good walk, there is a hike program for your ability and level of fitness.
As you train, you’ll raise funds to help find cures for blood cancers with assistance from staff of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. The funds you raise will help patients with blood cancer live better, longer lives.
For more information visit our website, or RSVP for an upcoming information meeting in your area, and join us for the adventure of a lifetime!
“Hike For Discovery has been an incredible experience for me, and a win-win all around. I've connected with some fantastic people and focused on getting in shape, all while building awareness and funding for the LLS.” – Fall 2007 Participant, Diane Miller
