TEN Walkathon: Saturday, November 22
Help the Homeless Walkathon, Saturday, November 22, 2008
Although it receives funding from HUD, the Tenant Empowerment Network cannot pay for all of the program's costs through government grants. TEN relies each year upon the Help for the Homeless Walkathon to meet its bills and to obtain the resources needed. We can participate with TEN to meet these goals and to enjoy the fellowship of other Society members. It's easy and fun. Here is what you need to do to join us:1. Register online for the Walkathon at the website address to preregister for the Walkathon is
