Pathways Homes of Florida is holding its 6th annual DUCK RACE at Island H20 Waterpark. Hundreds of rubber ducks will race around the Island H20 Waterpark’s lazy river to raise money to help alleviate homelessness that affects a growing number of Central Floridians. It’s a family-friendly festival complete with entertainment, fun and prizes. By sponsoring a duck, donors help beat homelessness as they cheer for their duck to cross the finish line and win great prizes. All proceeds will go toward Pathway’s efforts to provide housing, mental health, and supportive services to individuals and families experiencing homelessness and mental illnesses in the greater Orlando community.
Pathway Homes of Florida is a nonprofit working to prevent and end homelessness. By partnering with the Central Florida Homeless Services Network to use funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, the Central Florida Foundation, Orange County, the City of Orlando and other public and private partners, Pathways helps families and chronically homeless adults with mental illnesses, substance abuse disorders, and/or other co-occurring disabilities find housing and receive services they need to recover and move forward. Pathway Home’s DUCK RACE helps raise funds to support this important work.
