Walk a Mile in My Shoes

Community Awareness walk to reveal the face of homelessness

Would you know I was homeless? It’s the question Helping Others Make the Effort is asking to those in Osceola County as we work to raise homelessness awareness through a community awareness walk on Nov. 14, 2009 at 11 a.m.

November is Homelessness Awareness Month and, with the help of the Osceola Teen Alliance, HOME hopes that through the event residents of central Florida can get to know who the homeless really are in their community.

Walk a Mile in my Shoes will be held at the Kissimmee Lakefront, in downtown Kissimmee, Fla.

Walkers are encouraged to arrive at 10 a.m. for registration and fun and then begin the walk at 11 a.m. The walk will conclude with a statement from HOME board members about homelessness in Osceola County.

To register for the walk simply go to www.osceolahome.org and fill out the quick and easy registration form.

Sponsorships are available for the event. For more information please e-mail walkamile@osceolahome.org.

We look forward to you being a part of breaking the cycle of homelessness in Osceola County and Central Florida! Sphere: Related Content
