“You can’t really understand another person’s experienceย untilย you’ve walked a mile in their shoes.”

A little rain could not stopย Walkย aย Mileย 2018! ย ย On Saturday, October 13th, it was a beautiful sight to see hundreds of people in our communityย walkย togetherย to eliminate rape, sexual assault, domestic violence and gender violence and show support for those who have been impacted.
We were inspired by the words of our speakers, Antonette and Jackie, who shared their stories of survival and hope.ย  We were encouraged at the sight of the many children whoย walkedย alongside their parents and caregivers to demonstrate they will not contribute to a culture that perpetuates violence.
I am delighted to share that thanks to you, we have raised over $66,000ย to support the lifesaving work of Family Services.ย  Thank you to the many teams, walkers, donors and businesses who madeย Walkย aย Mileย 2018 a success.ย  ย We are so grateful to you for being part of such a special day!

 

With gratitude,
Whitney Humphrey
Family Services Director of Development
