“When you get away, you get to feel normal.” - Caleb Walker, Founder
At A Week Away, we coordinate and finance respite weeks for families who are battling a life-threatening illness, with the goal of providing them the rest and hope they need to continue their fight.
A Week Away offers families facing life-threatening illness a week of respite to find peace, recharge, and return with renewed strength and hope to continue the fight.

Over $255,000 Raised to Provide Respites for Families
Thanks to the generosity of our golfers, sponsors, volunteers, and supporters, the 2026 Caleb Walker Memorial Golf Tournament raised more than $255,000 to provide Respites for families facing life-threatening illnesses. This support means more opportunities for families to step away from the challenges of illness, reconnect, make memories, and simply enjoy time together.
We are incredibly grateful to everyone who helped make this day, and the impact it will have on families, possible.

A week of peace in the middle of your battle
