2026 6-Minute Walk for Breath

A Nationwide Moment of Movement and Awareness for PH

The 6-Minute Walk for Breath is PHA Canada's annual awareness and fundraising event held during PH Awareness Month.

Inspired by the 6-minute walk test used to monitor pulmonary hypertension (PH), this event brings communities across Canada together to raise awareness, honour the resilience of those living with PH, and support PHA Canada's work for Canadians affected by pulmonary hypertension.

Whether you join a walk in your community, participate virtually from home, fundraise, or make a donation, every step helps make a difference.
