Join children and adults around the world t celebrate the benefits of walking.
Why walk?
International Walk to School is an annual event that promotes walling for several reasons:
Physical Activity / teaching safe walking skills to children / awareness of how walkable a community is and where improvements can be made / concern for the environment / reducing traffic congestion, pollution and speed near schools / taking back neighborhoods for people on foot / sharing time with community leaders, parents, and children
