Friends of the Poor Walk 2022

October 1, 2022 9:00 AM (Registration begins at 8:30 AM)

Friends of the Poor Walk/Run is a FUN way to help an extremely worthy cause and we need YOU! Please join St. Vincent de Paul volunteers from the Austin area in our walk on Saturday, October 1st, 9 AM at St. Louis Catholic Church School Track.  You can also set your own fitness goal you feel comfortable with and walk virtually. Friends of the Poor Walk is a national fundraising effort and all the proceeds will go to the Society of St. Vincent de Paul at St. Albert the Great. Donations for this event are accepted until October 31st.

Our parish has already formed a team to participate. You can donate to this event, register as a walker as an individual or family and join an existing team, or form your own team at St. Albert the Great page. This would be a great opportunity for families to create their team, a ministry or group to form or join a team and be a part of this! We had very positive feedback from our Walk that we held last year.  https://www.fopwalk.org/eventlisting/eventdetail/?eventid=2773
