The 12 Walking Dads on Saturday right before the start of the start of the 84-walk across northern England to raise money for Camp Kesem.

City Dads Group is today’s sponsor of The Walking Dads — 12 fathers on a sea-to-sea hike across England to raise $40,000 to start a new chapter of Camp Kesem, a nonprofit that helps children of adults with cancer.

We aim to raise $1,000 today toward their goal through general donations and by hosting local walks with our  chapters Chicago, Detroit and New York City. Here’s how you can help:

These fathers are hiking the historic Hadrian’s Wall, a fortification built in the first century A.D. that once marked the northernmost point of the Roman Empire, to support Camp Kesem. Kesem provides free summer camps and other events for the 3 million children nationwide affected by a parent battling cancer.
