Event Information


2020 Walk For Canisius

Nov 6th 2020

A Walkathon is a very popular fundraiser and is common in Jesuit high schools.  Students raise money for their school by asking family members, family friends, neighbors, and others for donations of any amount.  At the end of the fundraising period, a special day is set aside for students, faculty, and staff to walk throughout the local neighborhood. The Walk is meant as a fun day and symbolize our commitment to our school.

Students will walk in their neighborhood that day or do some type of cardio exercise. 
Wear your Canisius Walk shirt out walking in your community.
Walk between 9am-noon.
Walk with a family member or friend. No large groups. Practice safe social distancing.
Take a picture or video walking and tag it with the hashtag #WalkCanisius.
We will post your videos and pictures on Canisius social media throughout the day.
Faculty and staff can participate throughout the day as well.
