“Walk a Mile in My Shoes” for West Broadway Community

“Walk a Mile in My Shoes” will take place Saturday, September 26th and is an educational event as well as a fundraiser. It’s been said that to understand someone, you must walk a mile in their shoes. This event is designed to give participants a snapshot of what it’s like to live in poverty, particularly with some of the issues individuals and families face to make ends meet. We are encouraging participants to gather their colleagues, fellow students, fellow faith-community members, and family to form a team to participate. Forming a team will allow you to celebrate the day with friends and family and create a community of people committed to ending poverty that you can continue to learn with.
