The Greater Chicago Fragile X chapter held their “X Strides with Greater Chicago” event on July 13 in Glenview, Illinois. More than 50 families and caregivers participated including heading to the park splash pad to cool off afterward.

Greater Chicago Fragile X held their first X Strides event back in 2019. Then and now, everyone who volunteered, ran, walked, organized a team, and donated are at the heart of their success. In addition to being out on a nice day and fundraising, everyone was raising awareness as people approached to ask, what is Fragile X?

Greater Chicago Fragile X shared some wonderful photos with us that we’ve shared here for the whole community to enjoy, and if you want to host your own X Strides, please reach out to Missy Zolecki at missy@fragilex.org.
