I'm not sure if my registration went through. How can I check?

What if I cannot make it to the Walk in my city or there isn't a Walk close enough for me to travel to?
If you are unable to attend the event because of location or prior commitment, you can still participate! If you would like to fundraise for a particular Walk location but will not attend the event, select the city from the list and choose to be a virtual walker. If there is no Walk in your area, select Alexander's Hometown USA, our Online Walk location.
