Registration kicks off for Share the Hope Walk May 1 Registration is now open for the third annual Share the Hope Walk in downtown Oakville, benefitting Home Suite Hope. The event, which takes place May 1 at Coronation Park, 1426 Lakeshore Rd. W., looks to raise awareness of homelessness locally and funds to help those struggling. "Our goal is to help low-income single parents end the cycle of poverty," said Michelle Pommells, Home Suite Hope president and CEO. "By walking in a large loop around downtown Oakville, walkers have a first-rate opportunity to visualize the cyclical nature of this complex issue. They are able to help fellow their neighbours and see struggles through their eyes." The Share the Hope Walk is an annual event that raises funds for Home Suite Hope's programs. Monies raised go directly towards education and housing for lowincome single-parent families facing homelessness, as well as towards nutrition, employment readiness, positive parenting, and budgeting and financial literacy skills development. Walkers begin and end at Coronation Park, travelling through Oakville's scenic lakeside, from 1-3 p.m. Participants can sign up for the five-kilometre event as a team or an individual online at www.homesuitehope.org by selecting `Register Now', or by emailing info@homesuitehope. org. Registration for the walk is $25, but the fee is waived if walkers raise $100 or more. On-the-day registration opens at noon, followed by the walk at 1 p.m. The family event will include live performances by Toronto-based singer/ songwriter Julie Neff and activities, such as a Kids Zone with children's face painting, craft making, and a `dress-up' selfie booth. MC Eric Johnston, the actor who plays Lord Splatalot on the TV game show Splatalot!, will lead a warm-up for walkers. Food and beverages will be served, and team prizes and awards will be given out at the end of the event. 19 | Thursday, April 7, 2016 | OAKVILLE BEAVER | www.insideHALTON.com free familY pass!
