Pointy hats, questionable footwear and a very serious mission: funding childhood cancer research.
The 5th Annual Witches Walk took over downtown Matthews on October 28, 2026, sponsored by Novant Health. Thank you to every witch who grabbed a broom, and to the local businesses who opened their doors.
What started in 2022 is now our biggest night of the year, and it has helped deliver our $500,000 pledge to Novant Health Hemby Children's Hospital.
Dates for the 2027 Witches Walk are coming soon.
Sign up on the Witches Walk website and pick up your registration bag full of treats.
Meet at the starting spot in downtown Matthews, then walk the town together, broom in hand.
Contests for best hat, best broom, best shoes and best accessories, plus prizes and raffles.
Over the years our family has met incredible children and families in the childhood cancer community. We've celebrated clear scans and bell-ringing days. We've also said goodbye to friends who should still be here.
