The 2026 Cape Fear Heart Walk is coming to UNCW on Saturday, October 24, and CHHS and the UNCW Campus Recreation are bringing heads and hearts together to lead the charge as part of Team UNCW.
It’s a chance for Seahawks from across campus to come together around heart health, community, and a cause that affects us all.
By joining Team UNCW, you’ll have a chance to:
- Show your support for heart health in our community
- Connect with colleagues, students, and friends from across campus
- Help demonstrate how UNCW can come together around an important cause
- And, of course, get out there and walk with us! It won't be in vein, our combined efforts can truly save lives.
No donation is required to join. Just bring yourself, your Seahawk spirit, and maybe some comfortable shoes.
Don’t skip a beat. Join Team UNCW today!
Hope to see you out there!
Best,
Wesley (Wes) K. Porter
