Students Walk for Rare Syndrome Research | Grand Rapids News

from Grand Rapids News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Spring Lake Schools is rallying the community for their second annual KATwalk, a powerful fundraiser for rare KAT6 syndrome research — and it’s all thanks to 11-year-old Ben Bator, whose vibrant spirit and love for music and lights inspire everyone. With students from grades 5-8 participating in an entire week of inclusion activities, the school is turning compassion into action, raising funds for global research and a new clinic at Boston Children’s Hospital. Led by the innovative Peer Connect elective, this event isn’t just about walking — it’s about building a culture where every student belongs, and they’re already halfway to their $175,000 goal.
