Students seek support for participation in Third Annual WALK Against Hate
Organizers hope the 2013 WALK Against Hate will help foster diversity and end prejudice.
Kennett Middle School students, relatives, and neighbors are inviting others to participate with them in the Third Annual WALK Against Hate on Sunday in Philadelphia from 1 to 4 p.m.
Sponsored by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) in an effort to end the injustices of prejudice, the 5K-route will begin on Martin Luther King Drive, adjacent to the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
The registration fee for the WALK is $10 for adults and $5 for youths. To register online, go to http://bit.ly/12BmQOe, then click the “Join Our Team” link at the top of the page. Participants should arrive at Kennett High School for a bus that leaves at noon and will return about 4:45 p.m.
Those who can’t participate in person can sponsor an individual walker or the whole Kennett team. Contributions of any size will be appreciated; donations can be made at http://bit.ly/YJOAkg. Funds raised through the WALK Against Hate will help support the Anti-Defamation League’s mission and programming such as No Place For Hate. Kennett Middle School earned the No Place For Hate Designation last fall for club activities centered on diversity and anti-bullying.
