Our fourth annual walk event will take place over 10 days. You can choose to attend virtually or attend an in-person walk at select cities. We invite families and friends of individuals diagnosed with KAT6A and KAT6B disorders to raise awareness during this time. The KATwalk fundraiser is a vehicle that enables everyone to participate at the activity and/or donation level they choose.
