Housing Assistance Corporation is proud to present the 6th Annual Walk for Hope! This community based peer-to-peer fundraiser gives participants the opportunity to raise awareness of housing issues on Cape Cod and help our neighbors access safe, stable housing on Cape Cod and the Islands.
Whether you're walking as an individual or with a team, you'll be offering HOPE with every step you take and every dollar you raise! You will give hope to our most vulnerable neighbors needing access to critical services. Everyone deserves a safe place to call home.
The Walk for Hope will be celebrated on Sunday, May 19, 2024. More details can be found on our Day of Walk page.
Walk and fundraise as an individual or on a team! Connect with friends, family, and colleagues who share your passion for giving back and helping others by starting a team or joining one. Together, you’ll create more awareness to the need for more safe, stable housing in our region while showing what it truly means to be a community.
