Where to start?! During yesterday’s Holiday Luncheon, Canopy Housing Foundation graciously awarded $38,500.38 to Home Again Foundation from the Strides for Shelter 5k!
We are so thankful to have been selected as the beneficiary for this event. This year’s donation will support the construction of a one-bedroom, one-bath home for a homeless veteran, providing a life-changing opportunity for stability and security.
A special thank you to the amazing co-chairs, staff, and all the volunteers that made this event a huge success!
