National WFO Day - Virtual Walk

Please join me in helping others live a happier, healthier, and more fulfilling life! Donate or walk to raise funds to help others get access to care when they need it.

The ASMBS Foundation's Walk from Obesity is the only national walkathon event that brings together those who are directly affected by obesity.  This year, we are all participating in National Walk from Obesity Day, which is a virtual Walk. Our team is taking steps by raising funds for critical research and drawing attention to the disease of obesity and the need for treatment and prevention efforts. Funds raised through this virtual event will benefit access to care and research grants, with COVID-19/obesity grant requests taking precedence.  Then on September 26th, we will all walk to help raise awareness for a cause we care about. 

Will you take a step with us? We need your help to reach our fundraising and participation goal! Please join our team or make a donation today.  Any amount is welcome and all donations are tax deductible! 

If you are planning on participating in the Walk from Obesity on Saturday, September 26th you don’t need to subscribe, you don’t have to donate…You just have to JOIN our team - MSA Bariatrics - and post pictures or videos of your walk on your Facebook or Instagram account and include the hashtags #MSABariatrics #NationalWFODay #WhyIWalk #WalkFromObesity

Your donations will help support research and advocacy by the American Society of Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS) to help others through this tough journey.

Our team is walking for you!
