USC Walk-A-Thon 2026

About the Event

On October 4, 2026, join the IFC and The Center of Student Health and Well-being at the University of South Carolina for an inspiring walk aimed at raising awareness about mental health. This event is more than just a fundraiser; it's a collective effort to foster deeper connections within the community while supporting initiatives that prevent suicide and promote mental wellness.
Participants will gather on campus starting from 1:45 PM, with bib pickup available throughout this time frame. The walk itself begins promptly at 2:30 PM and concludes around 5 PM. Parking is conveniently located in AD14 (530 Williams Street), making it easy for everyone to participate.
As part of USC's commitment to safety, the Clear Bag Policy will be enforced during the event. This ensures a secure environment while allowing participants to enjoy their experience without worry.
Join us on this meaningful journey through Columbia as we come together in support of mental health awareness and prevention efforts.
