On August 17, 2024, BAPS Charities hosted its annual “In the Joy of Others: Walk-Run” in Virginia Beach, VA, benefiting Connect with a Wish. This year’s event brought together nearly 130 community members, including US Congresswoman Jennifer Kiggans, Virginia Beach City Mayor Robert Dyer, and JP Paul, to support Connect with a Wish. The organization’s mission is to connect the wishes and needs of children in Virginia Beach foster care with the generosity of the community.
The event showcased a wide range of participants, from youth to seniors, all united for a common cause. It not only provided an opportunity for participants to engage in a healthier lifestyle but also highlighted the significant impact that collective efforts can have in addressing local needs and challenges.
