ROCKATHON

You're Invited to Rock for Healthcare!

What if spending a few relaxing hours in a rocking chair could make a positive impact on local healthcare?

That’s exactly what Rockathon 2025 is all about. Hosted by the St. Francis Valley Healthcare Foundation and a passionate Rockathon committee, this unique and heartwarming event invites you to rock for a reason—and have a whole lot of fun doing it.

Set for Friday, June 20 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the beautiful Valley Manor Courtyard, this year marks the fourth-annual Rockathon, where teams and individuals gather pledges and rock the day away.

Funds raised will benefit local healthcare including the needs of the Valley Manor, which this year includes a new washer, curtains, Christmas and birthday gifts for residents and resident outings.

“Every dollar raised through the Rockathon has a real impact on the care we can provide in our community,” says Christine Hudder, Communications and Fundraising Officer at the Foundation.

Expect a fun-filled day with live music from local talent, light refreshments, fantastic prizes, and the unbeatable joy of giving back. Whether you join solo or form a team of up to six, everyone can take part—each team member can rock for just an hour and still make a difference.

Fundraising is easier than ever with the Foundation’s online crowdfunding platform—perfect for rallying support from out-of-town friends and family, alongside traditional pledge forms.
