Solace Sunrise Walk - San Antonio

06/13/2021

In the early hours this morning, as sunlight rose up in the clouds over our city’s skyline, the San Antonio Gaelic Athletic Club and friends, walked.

We walked in support of the Solace House.
We walked in remembrance of those lost to su***de.
We walked with hope and in solidarity with those still battling the darkest of fights.

We are reminded that every moment counts, that every earnest effort can lead to positive change in someone’s life, and that a community can be a part, even in a small way, of incremental steps forward.
We Are Not Alone. .

“It’s always darkest before the dawn.”

Thanks to .byrne for the post-walk music. Thanks to Roadmap Brewing Co. and all of the donors that helped make our fundraiser a success once again.

And a big, big thanks to all those that walked, donated, and volunteered their time and energy.
