Thanks to all who participated on March 14th and helped make Winter Walk a success!

Winter Walk is a 5-mile inter-faith walk that supports HomeStart’s efforts to end homelessness in Greater Boston. Every day, more than 7,000 people in Boston are homeless, walking the wintered streets and searching for a place to call home. Thank you for doing the legwork with us to help end their search.

TWO GREAT WALKS, TWO GREAT LOCATIONS:

Holliston/Sherborn: start: Unitarian Universalist Area Church - 11 Washington St. Sherborn. End: St. Mary's Church - 8 Church St. Holliston
Newton: start: United Parish of Aburndale - 64 Hancock St. Auburndale. End: The Lutheran Church of the Newtons - 1310 Centre St. Newton

Partnering with Boston Sports Club for the 2^nd consecutive year, spin classes were conducted throughout the day at Dewey Square in downtown Boston on Feb. 23rd. Over 75 daring spin enthusiasts bundled up and joined HomeStart in the frigid outdoors to raise awareness about homelessness in Greater Boston. With over $30,000 raised to benefit HomeStart, our ICycle riders are helping to provide a place to call home for those in need.

Thanks to all who supported ICycle 4 on February 23rd!
