Homeward Bound Indiana

Homeward Bound is a fundraising walk to bring attention to homelessness.  The Indianapolis version of this walk will be held on June 14.  Money raised from the walk goes to benefit a number of charitable organizations in Central Indiana.  I have elected to have any money I raise go to Gennesaret Free Clinics; a collection of free clinics serving the homeless and uninsured in Indianapolis.  My team is comprised of my wife and children as well as employees of PCA.  It is a great way to spend a few hours on a Sunday afternoon and I hope that our efforts will serve as an example to others.
