THE LONG AWAITED DAY IS HERE! I am walking from my house in Bow, NH to Washington DC starting TODAY!!!!!! As a reminder, I am doing this for the homeless, lonely, and suffering. With the help of many many amazing people, they have helped me raise nearly $2,000 for equipment and an emergency fund. All remaining proceeds will be donated to the St. Francis Inn in Philadelphia, PA. I am expecting to arrive in D.C. July 1-3 and flying home from D.C. July 6. I am extremely excited, nervous, and scared. A ton of mixed emotions, but the support I have received from friends and family constantly remind me that I can do this. All of my Trust is in God.
Today is also Memorial Day. When I went to Philadelphia, PA to serve at the St. Francis Inn soup kitchen with an amazing group of individuals from my college, we were all so moved by many individuals, especially one in particular. Melvin is about 50 years old and had served in the United States Marine Corps. He had been on a couple tours and since then has had a ton of problems when he returned to the U.S. Today being Memorial Day, I am devoting this first day of walking to Melvin and all Veterans of the United States Military who live on the streets and have no homes or shelter.
