About the 2026 Kindness Matters Walk
The Kindness Matters Walk takes place on Thanksgiving morning in Fullerton, and the format is open enough that participants can walk, run, rollerblade, bike, or kayak. In-person and virtual participation are both options, so groups spread across the country can join on their own schedule. Proceeds go toward brain tumor research and local youth leadership programs.
The virtual format means there is no fixed course or start line if you are participating remotely. For those joining in person, a live-streamed celebration runs alongside the in-person event, with speakers and contests.
