StepALIVE! to Create Brighter Futures

Thank you for making the 37th annual StepALIVE! Walkathon such a great success! With your generous support, over $100,000 was raised this year! All proceeds from the event will provide funding for ALIVE!'s tuition assistance program for children from low-income, working families—ensuring their access to high-quality, full-day, year-round early education and child care. Thank you for joining ALIVE! in creating brighter, stronger futures for Alexandria's children!

Congratulations to the 2018 StepALIVE! winning teams:

A very special THANK YOU to our Trailblazer sponsors, Jack Taylor’s Alexandria Toyota and The McNeil Family Foundation. And, to our Pacesetter sponsors, Fairlington United Methodist Men, First Christian Church of Alexandria, Oliff PLC and Saint Joseph Catholic Church.
