WHY

With harsh, subzero temperatures sweeping across the state this winter, the need to provide assistance to households facing heating emergencies is greater than ever. 100 percent of funds raised will stay in Livingston County to keep our friends and neighbors warm.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

The Walk will be emceed by WHMI-FM’s Buzz Elliott, a supporter of this event for 15 years. During the event participants can enjoy music provided by DJ Kurt Lewis, Jazzercise, children’s activities, refreshments and interaction with local businesses. Door prizes will be drawn and walkers will receive a 25th anniversary t-shirt (while quantities last).

With platinum sponsor Consumers Energy pledging $.50 for every dollar donated to OLHSA’s Walk for Warmth, we continue to move closer to the overall goal of raising $180,000.
