Event Description

Join us in impacting young lives throughout our city, state and country by participating in the EVECE Walk for Life on Saturday, August 26, 2023, at Atlanta’s beautiful Piedmont Park. This signature 5K Walk/Run and Fundraiser supporting the EVECE Foundation will host a day of outdoor entertainment, music, art, health and wellness, food, and a day of family fun!

EVECE (pronounced eh-va-see) is the acronym for Erin Victoria Edwards and Christopher Edwards. The EVECE Foundation was established in 2020 to honor the late Christopher Redding Edwards II and Erin Victoria Edwards; two young, vibrant, exemplary lives who were taken much too soon. 

The purpose of our Walk for Life event is to remember, celebrate, and share the lives of Chris and Erin; who they were, all they loved, the honorable ways in which they lived their lives, the contributions they made to the world, and the gifts they left behind. But we will not stop there. We will celebrate all the young lives that have been lost too soon to depression, suicide, and gun violence which are tragically some of the leading causes of deaths today among children ages 13 to 19.

I hope you and your family will join us on August 26 in Piedmont Park, 8 a.m. – 2 p.m., as we celebrate and walk for life!
