5th Annual Walk for Belonging! {people keep telling Mikey to take a hike...}

[mikeymad]

Crazy to think that the 5th Annual Walk for Belonging is here.  I joined the board of directors of Communities of Belonging just before the first walk. They have all been motivating and enriching. 

Originally called "Second Chance Walk" in 2022, a part of April being Second Chance Month. 

We rebranded the second year as Walk for Belonging (W4B) - because our charter includes homeless as well as justice impacted.

The 5th Annual Walk for Belonging is back at Green Lake on the 25th of April. (I have a lot to get done in the next week).

We worked hard this last year and was able to expanded our board to 7 people, which helps with workloads. We are working to expand to a second house to at least double the number of people we can help. Like last year, grants are pretty far and few between under the current administration, but we are ever grateful to our supporters to provide stable clean and sober housing.
