Walk in the Spirit

Local Walks

The Walk In The Spirit aka the Everald Walk campaign will include distributed local walks across Australia, with a target of 1,000 participants nationwide. Participating SpiritWalkers will complete walk distances from 3km to 11 km in their own communities on the same (or previous) day and contribute to the fundraising goal. It is anticipated that the Dorcas ACTS board will lead and run the local Aspley/Chermside Walk.

The event’s purpose is to raise funds for Dorcas ACTS, a charity Everald founded to provide emergency financial aid to people in crisis where ever they are located in Australia. Dorcas ACTS is a 100% volunteer-run organization, meaning all funds raised go directly to those in need.
