NAMI Southwestern Pennsylvania

The air was cool, and the energy level was high on Sunday morning, Oct. 4, at the 3rd Annual NAMI Walk at the SouthSide Works.

At 10 a.m., over 2,000 walkers lined up in Town Square, and Honorary Chair Michelle Wright of WTAE-TV counted down 3-2-1 to start the walk. Girl Scouts cheered us on as WTAE-TV and WPXI-TV aimed their news cameras at our enthusiastic NAMI Walkers.

THANK YOU to our phenomenal volunteers, generous sponsors and donors, and high-energy walkers!

We are nearing our goal. Online fundraising is available through the end of November. Or send your checks to:
