Walk

 Benefit: The We Care 5K will be donating its net proceeds to support Jared Carreras, a young Brookfield resident suffering from Hydrocephaulus (a debilitating brain condition that has left him blind and bound to a wheelchair).  The family wishes to purchase a new van which would help them with their multiple trips to Yale-New Haven Hospital as well as school.  In addition, a portion of the proceeds will also go to Brookfield Cares, a community based organization dedicated to promoting awareness and education by focusing on the impact of the substance abuse, depression, suicide and other public health concerns.
