Walk for the Homeless (“Walk-A-Mile In MY Shoes”)
When: Saturday, December 13, 2008
Time: Register from 8:00 A.M. — 8:45 A.M.
The WALK begins at 9:00 A.M.
Where: The WALK will begin at the Shelby Pedestrian Bridge at LP Field and end at Riverfront Park.
How: Walkers, recruit your own sponsors — as many as you can. The suggested minimum is $20.00 per mile per sponsor because the WALK is only one mile (Walk-A-Mile In My Shoes), however, you are encouraged to get the largest donation possible from each sponsor. Collect all donations in your registration envelope prior to the event and bring the donations to the WALK on December 13, 2008.
What: Organizations that participate in the WALK and solicit sponsors will earn 70 cents on every dollar raised and will receive a check from the Metropolitan Nashville Homelessness Commission made payable to the participating organization for the agency’s portion of the funds raised. The first 200 registration forms submitted on the day of the event with $25 or more will receive a 2008 Walk for the Homeless T-Shirt designed by one of our homeless citizens.
Prizes: A grand prize will be awarded to the individual and the agency who raises the
most money. (Money must be turned in before the WALK begins.)
