Warm Hearts & Spirits at the 14th Annual Hike for the Homeless
On a cold November day, our hearts and spirits were warmed by the generosity and support of everyone involved with the 14th Annual Hike for the Homeless. Thank you to everyone who hiked, donated, sponsored and volunteered at the Hike. Together we raised just over $147,000.
