Walk A Mile in My Shoes
The Walk is an opportunity to learn first hand about the journey a homeless person travels. The Walk is also a fundraiser to support The Key Alliance or a partner agency that serves the homeless. For a list of our partner agencies, click here.
Walkers can register here, set up their own web page to track their fundraising results, and email their friends and family to sponsor them and make online donations.
Registered walkers that raise $100 for an agency will receive a FREE Walk A Mile in My Shoes 100% cotton t-shirt featuring the colorful logo designed by Room In The Inn participants. T-shirts will be distributed at the sign-in table on April 17. Additional t-shirts can be purchased for $10 a piece.
Sign-in begins at 8 a.m. at LP Field in Lot R at the entrance to the Shelby Street Pedestrian Bridge. Partner agencies will have booths, WSIX, 97.9, will be providing music, coffee and water will be served. Bring your camera just in case a few surprise guests show up.
At 9 a.m. the Walk begins and will cross the Shelby Street Bridge to 4th Avenue. After a quick tour around Broadway the Walk will end at Hall of Fame Park with music and dancing by the Soul Choir, an art display by the homeless, and food and beverages.
