Kokomo Rescue Mission Having Walk a Mile in My Shoes Fundraiser

With the escalated number of people in Kokomo Rescue Mission’s homeless shelters, the need for raising support is more imperative than ever.

Kokomo Rescue Mission will hold its annual Walk a Mile in My Shoes fundraiser on Saturday, February 24, to raise crucial support for the women and children staying in their shelters. This one-mile walk includes a kickoff ceremony at 8 a.m.; a hot breakfast (freewill offering), tours of the two women’s shelters (Watered Garden and Open Arms), and a chance to hear the stories of women who’ve stayed in the shelters.

You can get involved with Walk a Mile by organizing a team to walk, registering to walk as an individual, and/or donating toward the cause. Visit kokomorescuemission.org/walk-a-mile to register and donate. You can also visit the Mission Monday-Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. to register or donate (321 W. Mulberry St., Kokomo).
