Yesterday, the Heart Walk Torch officially arrived at the Nest! Florida Gulf Coast University is honored to be one of just three organizations selected to carry the Torch leading up to the 2026 Lee County Heart Walk on Saturday, November 7, right here on our campus.
We will carry the Torch throughout this week before passing it on to the next organization, and we want to use this moment to rally our entire FGCU community and make our biggest impact yet.
While the Torch is with us, our goal is to recruit at least 100 new walkers and continue building momentum toward our Heart Walk goal. Whether you are a student, faculty member, or staff member, there is a place for you on Team FGCU.
