2020 Fight Stroke Walk

Sunday October 18, 2020

9:00 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.

San Jose Municipal Rose Garden

***PLEASE NOTE: There are NO DOGS ALLOWED within the Rose Garden park premises.***

On Sunday October 18, 2020, the Stroke Awareness Foundation (SAF) will host its 9th Annual Fight Stroke Walk at the San Jose Municipal Rose Garden. For nearly a decade, this 5K Walk has been bringing together stroke survivors, caregivers and those touched by stroke to walk side by side, inspire, educate and raise awareness to the #1 disabler in the USA – Stroke.

Walk with us in support of the fight against stoke, celebrate with stroke survivors, the stroke care community and the loved ones of those lost to stroke. We’ll celebrate the courage of stroke survivors, their families, as well as remember those who are no longer with us.

Since 2012, your participation in the Fight Stroke Walk has helped raise over $1,260,000 designated to improve stroke outcomes right here in Santa Clara County via a targeted Public Awareness Campaign producing measurable results. Over the years, we’ve hosted over 4,500 walkers, and more than 80 sponsors last year alone, who helped bring to attention the signs and symptoms of stroke and most of all what to do in the event of a stroke emergency to produce a more positive outcome for the stroke victim.
