Thank you for a successful 4th Annual Walk for Belonging!
I still want to donate
Thank you to all who joined, donated money and raffle items, shared personal stories, volunteered, and supported this year’s Walk for Belonging! We continue to celebrate those rebuilding their lives after incarceration. We’re so grateful to community partners Living With Conviction and Civil Survival as well as our generous event sponsors. Thank you to Scott Nelson and Marriam Oliver for photographing the event. It takes all of us to create safe, thriving communities!
With your support we raised nearly $13,000 of our $15,000 goal for reentry efforts. These critical funds allow us to keep permanent, supportive housing in place. Additionally, your contribution provides crucial resources such as programming and case management. Can you help us close the gap to our goal?
YES, I STILL WANT TO DONATE
A huge THANK YOU to our sponsors!
GOLD SPONSORS: John and Susie Saalwaechter
SILVER SPONSORS: David Dana and Robbin Price
BRONZE SPONSORS: Elizabeth and Steven Schindler
SUPPORTIVE SPONSORS: Susan Geear and Tina Jackson
We’re so grateful for your generous support!

“Everyone deserves to have a safe space to live and not be judged, where they feel welcomed, and are able to feel like they belong. I always try to support space for growth and learning so that everyone can have the chance to learn and grow with others who can help broaden their views.”
