The Emergency Food and Shelter Program has been fortunate to have the support of the United Way of Greater Los Angeles since our inception in 1983. We would like to ask you to help us in supporting the incredible work they are doing in ending homelessness. As many of you know, we have more people living on our streets than any other region in the country. United Way is committed to ending homelessness, and we know this is only possible through collaboration with community partners like you.
With that, we're pleased to share that registration for our 5th annual HomeWalk is now open! HomeWalk is United Way's 5K walk to raise awareness and funds to end homelessness, and it's the only walk of its kind in the country. We hope you will join us this year to be a part of this incredible movement. The 5K walk and run will take place on Saturday, November 19th at Exposition Park. During the past four years, HomeWalk has mobilized over 18,000 walkers, raised $1.7 million, and funded programs that have moved thousands of people into permanent housing. Registration is also free for anyone under 18 years of age.
If you have any questions about HomeWalk, please contact Melissa Chinchilla at 213-808-6233 or mchinchilla@unitedwayla.org. Thank you for your partnership in creating pathways out of poverty and ending homelessness in our communities for good.
