CVOEO "A Walk in Their Shoes" Fundraiser and Community Awareness - Saturday, June 10th

We would like to form a team to walk in the event. Please sign up in the lobby or by sending an email to the office if you would like to walk.

As a critical fundraiser for local emergency service and food providers, the event aims to educate the community about homelessness in Franklin and Grand Isle Counties by offering an opportunity to learn about the daily challenges that our unhoused neighbors encounter. A Walk in Their Shoes participants are provided with a guided tour around St. Albans by CVOEO staff members and volunteers who share information about what it means to experience homelessness in our community.

 

A Walk in Their Shoes is for the community, by the community. All residents are encouraged to attend, walk, and/or support our fundraising efforts. The event is a meaningful experience for school groups, church groups, families, and anyone looking to increase their awareness and heighten their empathy for our neighbors in need. All “A Walk in Their Shoes” participants are encouraged to set a goal of raising a least $100 and to attend the event on June 10th in St. Albans.

 

Saint Paul’s Scholarship Recipients will receive their awards on June 11th at the worship service.
