Join the Movement

Run, Walk, Cheer. Every Step Counts, Every Dollar Raised Warms a Life.

We couldn’t do what we do without our volunteers. From organizing events and supporting outreach to sorting donations and lending professional skills, volunteers bring energy and purpose to every mission. It’s a great way to make a real impact—no special experience required, just a willing heart and a few hours of your time.

Your partnership makes our mission possible. Sponsorship helps cover critical costs, expand our outreach, and provide life-saving resources to those in need—especially homeless veterans. Sponsors gain meaningful recognition online, at events, and across the community for standing with us when it matters most.

Thank you to our sponsors and supporters
