The Pasadena Ronald McDonald House is hosting its annual Walk for Kids on Sunday, April 7, from 8 a.m. to noon at Central Park in Pasadena.

More than 750 supporters are anticipated to come together in support as the event helps raise funds for critically ill children and their families.

The annual family-friendly 3.7k (2.3 mile) event aims to raise $165,000 for programs supporting families who must travel outside their communities to access medical treatment for their critically ill children at local hospitals.

Walkers will come together for a day of fun, food, entertainment and giveaways. The event features a kids zone, face painter, balloon artist, arts and crafts, bouncy house, scavenger hunt, food trucks and much more.

The Pasadena Ronald McDonald House runs on the simple idea that nothing else should matter when a family is focused on healing their child. The House gives families a place to stay, a source of comfort, care support and a chance to focus their energy on what matters most: getting their child well.

The Walk for Kids proceeds will benefit the Pasadena Ronald McDonald House programs and services.
