Visionz to Life and ZAALegacy Walk for a Breath of Hope
On May 18th, 2024, Visionz to Life Foundation Inc. and ZAALegacy LLC united for a cause close to many hearts, participating in their first Lung Force Walk in support of the American Lung Association. This special event was held in honor of the late Borhin Adossa, who tragically passed away in 2023 due to severe emphysema. Held at the picturesque Pier 16 at South Street Seaport, New York, NY, the event saw a remarkable turnout and an inspiring display of community spirit and dedication.
Walking in Memory of Borhin Adossa
Borhin Adossa’s battle with emphysema touched many lives, and his memory served as a powerful motivator for participants. Emphysema, a form of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), is a debilitating condition that affects millions worldwide. By walking in Borhin’s honor, participants not only paid tribute to his life but also aimed to raise awareness about lung diseases and the critical need for early detection and research.
A United Effort for a Greater Cause
Visionz to Life Foundation Inc. and ZAALegacy LLC collaborated seamlessly, bringing together a diverse group of supporters, volunteers, and participants. This united effort resulted in a significant achievement: raising over $8,000. These funds are crucial for the American Lung Association’s initiatives in funding innovative research and promoting early detection methods. Every dollar raised represents a step closer to breakthroughs that can save lives and improve the quality of life for those affected by lung diseases.
The Lung Force Walk Experience
The Lung Force Walk is not just a fundraiser; it’s a community movement. The event at Pier 16 was filled with emotional moments, inspiring stories, and a collective determination to make a difference. Participants donned teal shirts, symbolizing their commitment to lung health, and walked along the scenic route, reflecting on the importance of their cause. The walk offered a unique opportunity to connect with others who have been touched by lung disease, fostering a sense of solidarity and shared purpose.
