The Walk for Angels is to raise awareness to Angelman Syndrome and to raise money for The Canadian Angelman Syndrome Society.

Angelman Syndrome is a neurogenetic disorder. It affects walking and balance, seizures, sleep, developmental delays and speech. Angels have very few to no words and are known for their happy demeanor and infectious smile. Angelman syndrome affects 1 in every 15,000 people.

All proceeds of this walk will be going to The Canadian Angelman Syndrome Society. They help to educate Canadian families and caregivers about Angelman Syndrome through their biennial Canadian conferences.This year the conference will be here in Edmonton from July 13-16, 2016.
