Please join Samaritan Inns staff, volunteers and residents on Saturday, November 21, 2009 at the National Mall for Fannie Mae’s 22nd Annual Help the Homeless Walkathon! Last year, hundreds of individuals walked on behalf of Samaritan Inns in support of our mission to end homelessness and addictions in our Nation’s capital and raised over $21,000 for Samaritan Inns in the process! We hope this year we will have an even bigger presence at the Walkathon in celebration of our 25th year in service to our community. Please join us!
