Salute Our Vets - A Run for Veterans Brain Health Programs

Come join the Brain Injury Alliance of Arizona for the 4th annual Salute Our Vets - A Run for Veterans Brain Health Programs on October 12th! This event will be hosted at Brandi Fenton Memorial Park in Tucson and will feature a 10K and 5K run along with a 1 mile fun walk!

With more than 600,000 veterans in Arizona, there is a growing need to help those in various stages of recovery from PTSD, brain injury, or trauma. All proceeds from the 2024 Salute Our Vets event will go to support the Brain Injury Alliance Veteran & Military Emergency Relief Fund - so no Arizona veteran walks alone in their time of need. Be part of this community giving back to those who have given so much. Your participation will go a long way in helping fight this invisible disability.
