Name: Walk the Mile: Because HERstory Counts
Date: September 29, 2026
Time: 5:00 PM - 6:30 PM EDT
Event Description:
Get ready to tie your laces; Walk the Mile is back!

 
Help raise awareness around violence prevention, support victims & survivors, and envision a world without violence.
This isn’t just a walk. It’s a movement. A statement. A community-wide stand against sexual assault, gender-based violence, and the silence that too often surrounds it.

 
We’re calling on teams, individuals, workplaces, friend groups, and families to show up, speak out, and step forward. When you walk, you’re not just taking steps; you’re raising funds that go directly toward providing life-saving services, advocacy, and support for survivors in our community.

 
Want to make an even bigger impact?
Start a team, set a fundraising goal, and rally your circle to donate. The top fundraising teams will be recognized at the event, and more importantly, they’ll be leading the way in making sure survivors have access to the resources they deserve.

 
Every dollar raised helps provide:
  • Food, shelter, clothes, and other necessities
  • Crisis counseling and safety planning
  • Legal advocacy and prevention education
  • A 24/7 crisis hotline
Lace up. Show up. Step up.

Join us for Walk the Mile and make every step count.


 
September 29th, we will have our campaign celebration. This will include a mile walk, networking, a raffle, and a special appearance from DJ Joe George!
