Walk for Warmth
recap
Thank you so much to everyone who came out on Saturday, February 18th to raise money to end homelessness in Lexington. Every dollar that was raised goes directly to the Lexington Rescue Mission's Homeless Intervention Program (HIP). This program provides homeless individuals and families with housing counseling and pays for half the costs when moving into a new place. After moving in, recipients receive follow-up home visits from our staff to help ensure they are able to afford and keep their home. Funds raised from this year's Walk for Warmth will provide around 70 families with housing! Thank you for helping those who are homeless in our community!
Thank you to our Gold Sponsors!
