WALK WITH A PURPOSE
About WWAP
What is WWAP?
Walk With A Purpose (WWAP) is a walking club that was founded in the fall of 2016. Studies
show that short walks have several health benefits, lower stress, and boost one’s mood; that is
why this club is centered around the act of walking. Rather than a sport, walking is an activity in
which most people are willing and able to participate. Being low intensity, members can walk
and talk with friends or meet someone new.
The primary goal of WWAP is to create a stronger community within Broad Run. This club is
meant to offer a space where everyone has the opportunity to participate and be themselves.
High school can be a very difficult time for teenagers as they try to not only identify themselves
as individuals, but also find close friendships. WWAP hopes to eliminate this stress and give all
members a memorable high school experience.
A more expansive secondary goal of WWAP is to connect with the outside community through
supply drives and fundraisers. This is where the idea of ‘purpose’ in Walk With A Purpose
comes in. WWAP is open to any and all outreach programs and partnering with outside
organizations to benefit the overall community and help those in need.
Our Goals
Helping the Community One Walk at a Time
Through short walks, we will connect students throughout the school and create
a safe space where everyone feels comfortable while providing the healthy benefits of walking.
With our members working together, we will connect with the outside community to fundraise for charities and others in need.
​
Our vision is an active and cohesive community within Broad Run as well as strong
connections that benefit the outside community.
