Walk For the Homeless

Oct 2, 2011   //   by taralouisecramer   //   activities, Mustang Mail, PTA  //  No Comments

HELP THE HOMELESS MINI-WALK

Monday, Oct. 10

WHAT: Our students and staff will show their commitment to our neighbors in need as we participate in a Mini-Walk during recess to benefit Interfaith Works

WHO WE ARE HELPING: Interfaith Works provides shelter, housing, clothing, food and counseling to more than 35,000 of our neediest neighbors.

Based on total number of walkers who register, walk sponsor Fannie Mae will award a generous grant to Interfaith Works for its exceptional work with the homeless!  Your donations also provide crucial funding to support the homeless.  Interfaith Works will be presenting a brief program to our children prior to the walk about homelessness.

WHY THIS IS IMPORTANT:  Montgomery County has a serious, growing problem of homelessness. Half of the homeless in our area are families, and 30% are children…

The average age of a homeless person in the U.S. is 9 years old!

This walk calls attention to the problem.

 

HOW TO SIGN UP:

Fill out 1, 2 & 3 on the Registration Form.

Make a donation if you choose ($20 is suggested for youth, but any amount large or small helps). If you cannot make a donation, please return a signed form anyway. Your completed form helps Interfaith Works win a major grant based on student participation. Each student returning a signed form  will get a free tee-shirt commemorating the Walk.

IMPORTANT: A parent or guardian MUST sign the registration form

Thank you for your support!
