Move with MADD Hawaii 5K Walk set for Sept. 12 at Kakaako Waterfront Park
Hawaii's MADD chapter is holding its main yearly fundraiser this Saturday, a positive community event aimed at cutting drunk and drugged driving.
- The 5K walk takes place Sept. 12 at Kakaako Waterfront Park, with on-site sign-up followed by a warm-up and the walk itself.
- Local community groups and police will take part to support crash victims and their families.
- The chapter is aiming to raise $125,000 to fund its work for the year.
- MADD Hawaii also runs school programs on impaired driving and offers a guide to help parents talk to kids about substance abuse.
- Anyone can join — individuals, business teams, sponsors, or people who just want to cheer from the sidelines. T-shirts are provided, and costumes are welcome.
Outlook: Registration stays open online and at the park on the morning of the walk.
