The Walk to End Alzheimer’s and St. John Neumann.
Neumann’s Key Club has a fervent love for helping out those who need it. They attend beach cleanups, humanity services, Meals of Hope, and much more community service opportunities. The Walk to End Alzheimer’s is a great community service opportunity for SJN students because it allows the students to donate their time, love, and energy to the less fortunate who are suffering with Alzheimer’s. They are able to raise awareness through themselves and others, they can grow personally through developing leadership skills and empathy, and the walk also gives them a fun, physical activity.
Looking into the future, St. John Neumann’s Key Club will definitely keep attending the Walk to End Alzheimer’s event. They will keep striving to keep up their great work and always aim to give their best support.
