The Bookin’ for Lookin’ Foundation

This April is the tenth annual Bookin’ for Lookin’ 5K run/walk. SharingWell has partnered with this amazing non-profit for the past five years to help empower disadvantaged individuals and support a great cause for the visually impaired. Race participants have the option to run in-person or virtually. This year, the course will return to its old stomping grounds at Council Rock High School North and parts of Tyler State Park in Newtown, PA. The in-person race will be held on Saturday, April 23, 2022 @ 9:00 AM.

Bookin’ for Lookin’ funding will benefit two amazing organizations: The Bucks County Association for the Blind and Visually Impaired & Guiding Eyes for the Blind, both of which help the visually impaired or blind receive important eye exams, independent training and mobility services. These opportunities allow those with visual needs to grow more confident and independent lives.

To learn more information visit Bookin’ for Lookin’ or find their page on the Bucks 5K Series.
