RUN, WALK, WHEEL FOR WELLNESS
June 20th 2026
The 2K Walk for Wellness is a feel-good community gathering celebrating connection, fresh air, and the simple joy of moving together.
This event is about community — getting outside, sharing the trail, and coming together in support of wellness on Pender Island.
For those who wish to contribute, optional donations in support of the Pender Islands Health Care Society will be matched dollar for dollar by the Pender Islands Foundation, helping grow the impact of community care on the island.
Walk it, run it, or wheel it — bikes, strollers, and all wheeled ways of joining are encouraged.
(Cyclists, we ask that you line up at the front at Danny Martin Park to help lead the way!)
We’ll begin together at Danny Martin Park and make our way to Pender Island School along the beautiful Schooner Way–School Trail.
Come for the movement, stay for the community, and be part of something that gives right back. Let’s get out and move, Together!
DANNY MARTIN PARK → PENDER ISLAND SCHOOL

Participation is free and open to everyone

Every donation will be matched by the Pender Islands Foundation,
doubling the impact for community care on Pender Island.
THE 2026 WALK FOR WELLNESS BENEFICIARY…
The Pender Islands Health Care Society is a cornerstone of our island community, facilitating access to primary health care and complementary wellness services. From humble beginnings in the local doctor’s house in the 1970’s to the expanded Health Centre we know today, your support continues a proud tradition of community care and participation; Pender residents demonstrate their confidence and optimism with every gift.
This year’s 2-kilometre walk brings in additional funding that we could not raise on our own, and we are grateful to be named as the inaugural beneficiary!
‘By The Community, For The Community’
