Walk with us and embrace the power of Friendship!
FriendshipWorks is excited to announce its first annual fundraising walk-a-thon, called FriendshipWalks.
FriendshipWalks will take you through many of the neighborhoods we serve to promote the value of friendship, the importance of building neighborly connections, and the role of walking and physical activity in the health and well-being of elders.
Join us! Walk with a friend (or meet a new one), form a team, or, if you volunteer with us, bring your match. Walk in honor or in memory of someone important to you, or dedicate the walk to a friendship in your life.
You can choose from three routes (1.3 miles, 3.7 miles, or 5.9 miles) that connect our downtown office with our neighborhood offices. Choose a route; collect donations; then bring your pet, friends, neighbors, colleagues, and family, and join us on May 15th!
You can start your walk at either our office in downtown Boston or at La Cadena de Amistad, our Jamaica Plain office, based in Sherrill House. Walk to the new South End/Roxbury location at the Union United Methodist Church or to the Allston/Brighton office in the Presentation School Foundation Community Center.
We’ll end the walk with a Celebration of Friendship Party in Brighton! A van will be available to take you from the South End or Jamaica Plain to the party.
