The Third Annual Talk-the-Talk, Walk-the-Walkathon was held on June 13th, 2009 at University School in Hunting Valley, Ohio. The event was a great success thanks to a strong showing from a dedicated group of Galen Foundation supporters including the Board of directors, family, friends, and corporate sponsors.

The walkathon raised over $22,000 to support the Galen Foundation and beating-myeloma.org, a 50% increase from last year’s tttwtwalkathon! There was also a significant increase in participation, from 26 walkers last year to 56 this year. This year's event included new activities for kids including tie-dying of Talk-the-Talk, Walk-the-Walkathon t-shirts, capture the flag, and an Ultimate Frisbee Tournament for teams from Shaker Heights, Hawken, Laurel and Orange high schools.

Many thanks to all participants in the walkathon. We could not have done it without each one of you. Thank you to each of our corporate sponsors, listed below.
