The 2025 Walk for Hope event was the final Walk for Hope supporting Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP). Thank you to all our amazing patients, families, friends and clinicians for 16 wonderful years of collaboration and commitment as we raised funds for CHOP’s Center for Pediatric Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD).
Over the past 16 years and with your enduring support, Walk for Hope raised more than $2 million to fuel innovative treatments at CHOP for children with IBD and we cannot thank you enough.
We encourage you to continue your fundraising support for IBD research and care at CHOP. Please check out the inaugural I CHOP Run, Walk & Virtual Challenge presented by Philadelphia Insurance Companies. Participants and teams can dedicate their fundraising dollars to IBD research and care – continuing to create breakthroughs. Together, we can cure IBD!
Join us for I CHOP in April 2026!
