Join Us for the 2008 Walk from Obesity

The American Society for Metabolic & Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS) Foundation and the OAC are proud to bring you the 2008 Walk from Obesity.

The Walk from Obesity is the nation’s largest gathering of individuals affected by obesity. In September and October 2008 in cities all across the country, obesity sufferers and survivors alike will join forces and walk to raise money for research, education, prevention and treatment of obesity. In 2007, more than 16,000 walkers, donors and supporters participated in this national event.

To date, the Walk from Obesity has raised more than $2.5 million to support research and educational programs on behalf of those affected by obesity.

The OAC and ASMBS Foundation's Walk from Obesity was established to give hope to those needing it most.
