A Fun and Inclusive Community Event for All Ages and Abilities

STONE MOUNTAIN, GA – Friends of Disabled Adults and Children (FODAC) is thrilled to welcome families, friends, and community members to the annual Run, Walk ‘n’ Roll on Saturday, May 3rd, 2025, from 9:30 am to 12:00 pm at Stone Mountain Park’s Railroad Pavilion. This event is designed to bring people of all abilities together for a morning of movement, fun, and support for a great cause.

FREE Stone Mountain Adventure Passes will be given to the first 100 people who pre-register and check in at the event!

This beloved community event invites participants to move in their own way—whether running, walking, rolling, or any other form of movement—to support FODAC’s mission of providing mobility equipment to those in need.

The event raises funds for FODAC’s Home Medical Equipment (HME) Program, which provides gently used and restored medical equipment at little to no cost to individuals with disabilities. Each step, roll, or stride taken during the Run, Walk ‘n’ Roll helps ensure that people in our community receive the mobility solutions they need to live independent, fulfilling lives.

Client Testimony:

After surgery for hip dysplasia, 5-year-old Isabella needed a specialized pediatric walker to help her walk. When her parents learned that it would take several months for insurance to approve the medical item, they realized they couldn’t bear to delay their daughter’s recovery. Isabella’s father called FODAC from the hospital to seek help. He was relieved to talk to Bryan, FODAC’s Occupational Therapist. He said, “Bryan is very proactive, and he understands the pain parents go through trying to navigate the healthcare system. He called us back in a few hours and told us he had a walker for us. He gave us hope that day.”
