THE CAUSE

Help us give hope to our most vulnerable neighbors needing access to critical housing services. In 2021, Housing Assistance served over 5,000 clients through education, stabilization, prevention and services for the homeless. Funds raised through this year's Walk for Hope will connect our neighbors to safe, stable housing that serves as the link to healthy families, healthy neighborhoods, and healthy communities. 

HOW TO PARTICIPATE 

1. GET REGISTERED

Register now for the Walk for Hope. Make sure to include a photo and share your story to let people know why you're walking to support Housing Assistance Corporation.


2. START WALKING & FUNDRAISING

WALKING

This year, Housing Assistance will be hosting three separate 3-mile walks on event day in the Town of Falmouth, Hyannis, and Orleans! Participants are encouraged to join one of our walk locations, but can also stay connected virtually and create their own walk route.

Log your miles by connecting the Strava fitness app to your OneCause account and start recording your fitness activity leading up to and/or on event day!

FUNDRAISING 

Ask family, friends, and colleagues to make a pledge towards your walk! All donations are tax-deductible and support our many neighbors in need.

Share your fundraiser on social media and update your fundraising cavalry about your progress, and why safe, stable housing is important to you!
