Young Hadassah Holland Continues the Young Hadassah Worldwide Walk Tradition
19-Jul-2010
A diverse group of participants of varying ages, religions, and backgrounds came together to walk along the canals of Amsterdam to benefit renovations at the Pediatric Department at Hadassah Hospital-Mount Scopus.
Participants could choose to do a "short" walk of 4 kilometers or complete the full 12 kilometers. Walkers could look forward to a big barbeque at the finish line, which featured a live band, raffle, and other festivities.
The 15-euro registration fee, in addition to the raffle and individual sponsorship by friends and family, resulted in over 1700 euros raised that day for Pediatrics at Hadassah. 
The World Wide Walk is an annual fundraising event created by Young Hadassah International, which takes place throughout Europe, North America, and Australasia, with proceeds benefiting the Hadassah Medical Center.
