Anthroposophical Society in America

This weekend, I will be participating in the Anthroposophical Prison Outreach (APO) Walk-a-thon to raise money for this important initiative. I will be walking with my friend "Cisco" in mind. He is pictured with me at my home last Christmas - which was extra joyous because he spent the prior twenty Christmases in prison. He is currently doing well "breathing free air" - partly because of our many conversations about Christianity, the moral life and Rudolf Steiner. Bringing the Christian message of moral development to incarcerated individuals is the mission of APO. Please consider contributing to this worthy cause. Thanks in advance, Rick

ABOUT 2023 APO Walkathon

This Year’s Walk-a-thon is September 22 – 24, 2023

We hope you will join in to walk, run, or cycle!

Anthroposophical Prison Outreach inspires inner change in men and women who are in prison. Our lending library, meditation instruction, correspondence course and twice yearly newsletters support students in their self-development. And, as you know, when one person changes, it radiates to those around them. Your donation makes a big difference in the world. Click the button above to donate or join in as a walker. Another option is to sponsor a specific walker, just scroll down to see our participants! Thank you for your support!

Where will this walk-a-thon be held? It's everywhere! This is a nationwide event with no set course or distance. Walkers and cyclists can participate wherever they want throughout the weekend.

Our goal this year is to raise $40,000 in support of the work of the APO and the hundreds of prisoners around the country whose lives we touch. Your support makes a difference. Thank you!

“APO has helped me to control myself and be more reflective. I am more positive, I don’t hate like I used to. I present myself to others better with more confidence. I try to use patience, understanding and thought instead of violence or shutting out. I am not as bitter as I was and it dissipates more every day. Now I’m filled with more understanding and feel more optimistic.” Michael, Greenville, IL
