Steve Wahlquist walked by our office this morning. He’ll be walking by a lot of offices for the next few weeks on his 365-mile trek to St. George.
And the thing is, he’s doing it on one leg with the help of crutches — all to help raise awareness and funds for kids who have lost limbs and need prosthetics. More than 133,000 people lose a limb each year in the United States. The Salt Lake Shriners Hospital expects to fit over 250 artificial limbs for children this year alone. Many can’t afford prosthetics, physical therapy and emotional support that need to come with it. Steve is hoping to raise $1 for every person in Utah.
When it comes to helping kids, we’re all about that. So, here’s a picture of Steve with a few SEO.com employees after we all cheered him on. Check out his Website at walkstevewalk.com and join SEO.com in donating a few bucks to help some kids.
Good luck, Steve!
It’s a good thing that Steve is doing. I have donated $10 to his cause.
You’re a good man, Mr. Anderson.
Well, it is very nice what you do. Thanks for being so kind with the kids
Hey you guys are awesome!!! Thanks for the plug and thanks for the shirt
Mr. Anderson – above and beyond. Thank you! Take care guys, and good luck with your biz. By the way – you popped up #1 on my google search. You know your stuff!!!
Steve, too bad you’re not making a round trip. We’d love to see you again. Again, good luck, especially as you get further south in the desert heat.
You are really good people here at SEO.com. It is not so hard to make people get a smile on their faces:)
We met Steve and his wife and daughter in Bryce Canyon yesterday. He was walking down the relatively steep slope. We were amazed at his strength and fortitude and outstanding positive attitude. His dedication to Kevin and others in need was really inspiring. His refusal to succumb to his lack of a leg was nothing short of remarkable. We donate to his cause with great admiration for Steve and his family. Long may you run or walk.
