We are excited to share that the Big Heart Walk for St. Mary's Kids will return on Sunday October 17th, featuring a Family Fun Day at The Bronx Zoo.The St. Mary’s Big Hearts Walk raises critically needed funds to support vital programs and services for St. Mary's Healthcare System for Children. After the walk, enjoy a day of family fun at the Bronx Zoo’s annual Halloween tradition, Boo at the Zoo. ?
This year we will be honoring community leader and a true friend of St. Mary’s Kids, Robert Heicklen. Robert has been a consistent presence in the lives of the children at St. Mary’s Hospital for Children and has been a leader in St. Mary’s fundraising, including participating annually in the Big Hearts Walk.
