Charlotte ‘Strides For Shelter’ Run/Walk This Weekend
There is no question that homelessness is increasing in our country. Rents all over have increased enormously, and many people can’t afford a safe, clean place to live. This weekend you can help combat homelessness by taking part in the ‘Strides for Shelter 5K Run and Walk’ will happen this Saturday at McAlpine Creek Park in Charlotte.
Presenting the event is Canopy Housing Foundation which is the charitable arm of Canopy Realtor Association. The Foundation’s goal is to promote affordable homeownership and to provide funding to create housing opportunities.
You can participate in the event on Saturday morning, or you can make a donation to help the cause. Proceeds from the 2022 Strides for Shelter 5K will benefit Charlotte Rescue Mission. The Charlotte Rescue Mission serves people dealing with homelessness and addiction. They offer housing, counseling, fitness, and educational programs.
I am honored that I was chosen to host this year’s event, and I’ll be out at the park all morning. I’d love to see you! All the fun starts at 8:30 a.m. You can register and find our more info here. Anything you can do to help those in our community would be greatly appreciated!
The Strides for Shelter 5K Run + Walk presented by the Canopy Housing Foundation is taking place at McAlpine Creek Park on October 22nd! 🏃
