Thanks to all who supported CHGM's
7th Annual "Hope for the Homeless" Golf Tournament. The outing, held October 19 at Glenn Dale Golf Club, raised thousands of dollars to benefit homeless families in Washington.
If you're a golf enthusiast and would like to volunteer on our 2010 planning committee for next year, we want to hear from you!
Again, many thanks.

22nd Annual Help the Homeless Walkathon
CHGM is "Stomping Out Homelessness"
 More than 12,000 people in the Washington area do not have homes - a number that is expected to grow under current economic conditions. More than 40% are families with about 1 out of 4 persons being children.
Capitol Hill Group Ministry (CHGM) is "Stomping Out Homelessness" by raising awareness, providing stable housing, offering support services, and by walking in Fannie Mae's community-wide walkathon.
The Walkathon preregistration fee is $15 for youth (age 25 and younger) and $25 for adults.
Our goal is to recruit 500 walkers for the event. With your help we can achieve this goal and earn a $5,000 incentive award from Fannie Mae!
