Join us for the 27th Annual Walk for Warmth - Saturday, February 25th!
February 2012
Help keep your community warm by joining Community Action for the 27th Annual Walk for Warmth on February 25, 2012! Registration opens at 9am!
As these tough economic times continue, more and more families have to make difficult decisions about the basic needs they can meet with what little money they earn – do they put gas in their car, pay the rent, pay the electric bill, or put food in their child’s belly? Community Action works tirelessly every day to break the cycle of poverty and move toward a future where families aren’t faced with these decisions.
Walk for Warmth is one way we do that.
This year marks the 27thAnnual Walk for Warmth, and we need your help more than ever. Each year, Walk for Warmth makes it possible for low income, elderly, and disabled individuals and families to stay warm through our utility assistance program.
Our goal is to raise $50,000 across our four-county service area encompassing Barry, Branch, Calhoun, and St. Joseph counties. With partners like you, we know we can make this happen. For every $3,000 we raise, Community Action will be able to help ten local families stay safe in their homes.
This Saturday, February 25, 2012, walkers will take to the streets to raise awareness and funds for this worthy cause. We invite you to join us!
Walk for Warmth is a fun, safe, and festive occasion. You'll have a chance to win door prizes, eat healthy snacks, and socialize with other community members – all while helping your family, friends, and neighbors in need.
