Rally Round

For 45 years, the Children’s Wisconsin community has laced up their sneakers and gathered with loved ones to participate in Al’s Run & Walk for Children’s Wisconsin. We shared stories, celebrated triumphs and remembered those children who inspired us every step of the way. Rally Round represents a renewed promise. A promise to continue the legacy of Al’s Run & Walk and create an experience that resonates with a new generation of supporters. Rally Round was a party, a pep rally and a new way to come together as a community. This family-centered event featured live entertainment, interactive games and activities, local food vendors and running and walking activities — something for participants of all ages. Thousands of community members joined Children’s Wisconsin in demonstrating their commitment to supporting the health and wellness of kids throughout the state. Every dollar raised directly advances Children’s Wisconsin efforts statewide in research, advocacy, patient care and educational programs, helping build healthier futures for children and families statewide. Support from Rally Round helps Children’s Wisconsin: 

• Provide exceptional care: From routine checkups to complex surgeries, this support ensures that every child receives the highest quality care, regardless of their family’s ability to pay.

• Advance groundbreaking research: Donations help fund critical research that leads to new treatments and cures for childhood illnesses, giving kids a healthier tomorrow.

• Expand vital programs and services: Support allows Children’s Wisconsin to reach more families with essential programs like mental and behavioral health services, child advocacy and community outreach initiatives.
