ABOUT THE EVENT

Safe Haven Family Shelter, along with Hike Co-Chairs Richard Courtney and Laura Smith, is gearing up for our 16th Annual Hike for the Homeless. In an abundance of caution for the safety and health of our hikers, volunteers and staff, we will host the 16th Annual Hike for the Homeless virtually. 

We encourage you to team up to "hike your way" on November 7 and share photos/videos on social media. 

We may not all come together physically for the event, but we will all be connected by the common goal to make an impact in the lives of families experiencing homelessness. Help us meet our $150,000 fundraising goal!

• There is no participation fee or minimum donation. Participants are encouraged to create teams, with a fundraising goal of $1,000 per team. Hikers who donate $35 or more can opt to receive a Hike for the Homeless t-shirt. 
• To sign up, click the orange 'Start or Join a Team' button above and follow the prompts. To make a donation only, click the green donation button above.
• Help us spread the word! Go to the Hike HQ to download sample social media posts, email text, graphics and flyers.

Hikers who plan to walk on November 7 and also donate $35 or more can opt-in to receive a Hike t-shirt. 

Free dog bandanas will be sent to dog hikers (while supplies last)

Every participant in the Hike for the Homeless will receive a coupon for a free small coffee from White Bison Cofee, one of our Trailhead Sponsors!

Check back here for all the virtual fun leading up to the Hike on November 7.

MONDAY HIKE HAPPENING

How the Hike event benefits the Children & Youth Programs at Safe Haven:

AN UPDATE FROM SAFE HAVEN CEO:

We have great sponsorship opportunities for companies and individuals! We need support, now more than ever, and sponsoring the Hike for the Homeless is a great way to help! Click here to download the Hike Sponsorship packet and/or email Holly with any questions.

Volunteer roles include packaging t-shirts to mail to hikers and distributing promotional materials. And of course, we would love to have volunteers help us promote the Hike on social media. If you are interested in volunteering, please email Emily. 

The Hike for the Homeless benefits Safe Haven Family Shelter, the premier shelter-to-housing program in Middle Tennessee that accommodates families experiencing homelessness. 

Safe Haven leads our community's efforts to house, support, empower and advocate for families experiencing homelessness. 

The Hike for the Homeless is an opportunity for our donations add up to make a BIG IMPACT, raising more money for Safe Haven than we ever could alone!
