Join us – CONCERN AMERICA WALK OUT OF POVERTY 2018!

Funds raised at Concern America’s 21st Annual Walk Out of Poverty will help bring health care, clean water, and education to impoverished communities in Colombia, Guatemala, and Mexico. Walk and pledge with us to help make a difference in the global community! Here’s how it works:

  1. Register: Early Bird registration (by March 2, 2018) is $25 (all Early Birds receive a guaranteed t-shirt) • Registration after March 2 (including day-of registration) is $35. Children 5 and under always walk for free, but must still register!
  2. Set a Goal: Any amount counts! $100 provides a person with clean water for 25 years; $1,000 enables full medical training for a village health care provider.
  3. Fundraise: Invite your family members, coworkers, schoolmates, and more to support by giving through your online page or by checks and cash. We encourage you to raise at least $100.
  4. Walk: On Saturday, March 24, arrive at 6:45 am at Holy Spirit Church in Fountain Valley. Check in, get a snack, and pick up your t-shirt! We begin the five-mile walk at 7:30 am.
