The “Fight for Air” Walk is a signature 5K walk of the American Lung Association, with more than 200 walks being held nationwide. All proceeds support Lung Association programs, such as the organization’s Asthma Awareness Days, research and advocacy efforts. With your help we can surpass this year’s Fight for Air Walk fundraising goal of $55,000.

Free parking for the walk is available on Harrisburg City Island. Walkers should meet at the Carousel Pavilion for registration, an art contest for children under 12, a bird release and much more. The walk begins at the Walking Bridge.
