The 21st Annual Mother’s Day Walk for Peace
“In Unity There is Healing: Invest in Peace”
www.mothersdaywalk4peace.org
The Mother’s Day Walk for Peace is a celebration of our potential to create more peaceful communities. Every year families from across the state and region walk together toward peace because in unity, there’s healing! Join us on Mother’s Day to demand dignity and compassion for all families impacted by murder.
The Mother’s Day Walk is also the Peace Institute’s most important fundraising event. In 2017, our goal is to raise $400,000 for Louis D. Brown Peace Institute’s critical programs and services.
Invest in peace this Mother’s Day – Sunday May 14, 2017!
The Mother’s Day Walk for Peace started in 1996 so mothers of murdered children could receive support and love from their neighbors. Twenty-one years later, the Mother’s Day Walk continues to be a powerful way to honor our loved ones who have been murdered and embrace our partners in peacemaking.
