What makes Laps of Love unique
Laps of Love is our annual event centered around kindness and inclusivity.
The family-friendly day along the Buffalo Waterfront features a 5K Walk/Run/Roll and a 1-mile honorary walk to recognize and celebrate CP Warriors and their families. Our paved course is accessible to wheelchairs, walkers, and other support devices.
Proceeds from Laps of Love are used to improve access via grants to cutting-edge treatment for CP. In 2023, awarded $129,000 in PT grants. And the need for this life-changing therapy is greater than ever.
Start or join a fundraising team
Cerebral palsy is known as the forgotten disability. But you can give the CP community a voice.
Starting or joining a fundraising team is easy and fun. Help us meet our fundraising goal of $100,000. Together, we can make a difference.
