Get ready to walk the walk! The 3rd annual ANTHONY'S WALK will take place Saturday, Sep. 28th at 10am on the Marist College campus. It's a 22-minute community walk to raise awareness on the real challenges facing our veterans today, and it's named after a Marine Corps veteran who lost his life in Poughkeepsie in the fall of 2020. The 22-minute walk reminds us of a sobering statistic: an average of 22 veterans take their own lives in America each day.

The event is free and no registration is required. All are welcome! We will be raising funds to support Liberty Station, the veterans shelter in Poughkeepsie.

Anthony's Walk is co-sponsored by Marist College and Hudson River Housing, which operates Liberty Station. For more information on Anthony's Walk, visit www.hudsonriverhousing.org

We hope to see you on Saturday, Sep. 28th at 10am at Marist for the 3rd annual Anthony's Walk! To find us on campus, put "Beck Place, Poughkeepsie" into your GPS.

Thank you!
