Walk with Walgreens to Empower Your Community

Walgreens is now selling a commemorative charity bracelet at all of its more than 7,800 stores as part of its "Way-to-Well Commitment".  $2 of the $3 purchase price benefits the Magic Johnson Foundation whose goal is to raise $1 million through this effort.  The funds raised by the Magic Johnson Foundation will directly support programs at the Phoenix Park Magic Johnson Community Empowerment Center in South Sacramento. 

You can also show your support by joining the "Walk with Walgreens" event on Saturday, April 21, 2012.  Meet at the Walgreens at the corner of Mack Road and Franklin Blvd. beginning at 10:30 am. 

The event will start at 11 am and will proceed from the store to the Community Empowerment Center (corner of Franklin Blvd. & Shining Star Dr.)  Walkers will return to Walgreens for various health related activities.
