Walk to End Homelessness

The 7th Annual Walk For The Homeless will take place on Sunday, April 27th, starting at 2 p.m. As in past years, the objective of the Walk is to hold the issue of homelessness in full public view until the condition of homelessness finally ends.

The walk is 2.5 miles downtown New London and returns to the center.  This event is pet and bike friendly, fun for the whole family. 

Funds raised will benefit the Homeless Hospitality Center. 

Event Highlights:
- Food trucks and refreshments
- Raffles items to local businesses worth over $100! 
- Music entertainment
- Balloons for children
- Photography display depicting homelessness by guests of the shelter
- Interactive learning experience dispelling myths of homelessness
- Health Fair following the walk with local health agencies
