In alignment with Cardinal at Work Cares, Stanford’s employee give-back program, this year’s theme is to be a “superhero for your community.” It encourages embracing your inner superhero while supporting diverse and inclusive community initiatives.
Come dressed as a superhero and participate in community contributions, such as donating school supplies to support the Ecumenical Hunger Program. Whether you’re passionate about environmental sustainability, disaster relief, or any other cause, this event is an opportunity to champion what matters most to you.
Before the walk begins, join your colleagues in a series of superhero-themed activities and entertainment.
