FAAN WALK PLANNING MEETING
All PAK members are welcome. We can use your help in any capacity, i.e. passing out flyers, helping the morning of the Walk, whatever your schedules allow.
MEETINGS:
Our meetings focus on ways to deal with food allergies and anaphylaxis in everyday life. They frequently include speakers and/or discussions on issues such as schools/preschools, family life, recipes and sharing ideas on successfully raising our children with food allergies.
We meet 6 times a year: January through May, September
Most of PAK's meetings are held in South Charlotte at St. Matthew Catholic Church located at 8015 Ballantyne Commons Parkway, on the corner of Ballantyne Commons and Rea Road. We meet in Room 204 in the New Life Building. If you are facing the front of the Church, the New Life Building is the building connected to the main chapel on the right. It is easier to get to if you park in the lot on the side off Elm Street.

The Food Allergy and Anaphylaxis Network (FAAN) Carolinas Walk for Food Allergy: Moving Toward a Cure was held at Freedom Park on Sunday, September 20, 2009. Over 300 walkers came out committed to raising awareness about the growing prevalence and severity of food allergies.
Through corporate sponsors and individual fundraising, we raised over $170,000 to go towards food allergy research and education in the last 4 years.
