Global Village Project (GVP) hosts its sixth annual Welcome Walk on Saturday, November 3, 2018.
Previously called the Connecting Communities Walk, this is a 4.8 mile walk along the PATH Trail from Clarkston, where most refugees start their new lives in Georgia, and Decatur, where our school is located.
The walk starts at the Clarkston International Bible Church at 3895 Church Street at 10 a.m. and finishes at Decatur Presbyterian Church, 205 Sycamore Street, Decatur. All community members are invited to walk with GVP’s parents, students, staff, and volunteers to support refugee girls’ education.
The registration fee for students is $15 and $25 for everyone else. All participants will receive a t-shirt. All funds raised will support the Global Village Project. To register to walk or to donate please visit: bit.ly/welcomewalk2018
Every dollar we raise by walking helps provide life-changing educational opportunity to young refugee women at GVP. Our Welcome Walk is growing. Last year, we hosted over 200 participants. This year, with your help, we hope to bring together 300 walk participants and hold our largest event to date!
