We have some plans to strengthen the community and the impact this event makes! Details coming October 2024.
The very first ASF Walk was coordinated by neighbors of an Angelman family. Al and Barbara Kelkoff convinced Eileen and Tom Braun, daughter of Kaitlin who is diagnosed with AS, that a walk would be a great way to raise money for Angelman research, create community and raise awareness.
The initial event raised $26,000 and hosted people from 5 states around the Chicago area.
