The Walk Your Talk Walk is an annual event with a twofold focus. The first is to raise funds for foster care organizations to assist them in their ministry to foster parents, foster youth, adoptive parents and adoptive youth. The second is to raise awareness in the community, both Christian and secular as to the needs of the foster/adoptive community. With thousands of children in the foster care system and more coming each day, the needs are many.
Through this walk much progress has been made in bringing awareness to the needs of children in the foster care system. This event has been responsible for approximately 40 families becoming foster parents and untold numbers of children who have been ministered to. But more directly many foster kids found permanent homes and were given hope for a brighter future.
