Foundation board member (and past chair) Hayley Bowers attended in 2017 and said, “The BAPS Charities Walkathon was an awesome and very well organized event. The walkathon volunteer organizer, Vandan Shah, did a terrific job. I was pleased to see several River Bluff High School students participating in it, too, to raise funds for the Lexington One Educational Foundation, the NatureConservancy, and the nationwide initiative to plant a billion trees!“ 

The local walk that is sponsored by BAPS Charities Columbia, SC center is part of a larger, nationwide effort to plant a billion trees in 3 years through donations to The Nature Conservancy.
