The WICT Network: Greater Pittsburgh Chapter is sponsoring a team for this year’s Walk a Mile in Her Shoes event, sponsored by the Blackburn Center.
This is Westmoreland County’s opportunity to take a stand against all forms of gender-based violence. Through the Walk, we raise awareness about these important issues while raising funds to support the work of the Blackburn Center, which has been providing services to victims of domestic violence and other types of crime in Westmoreland County since 1976.
For more information and to register for the Walk and join our team, simply click here. Scroll down to the registration form and be sure to enter The WICT Network: Greater Pittsburgh Chapter under "Team Name."
Please invite your family and friends to join and donate. All are welcome and we look forward to seeing you there!
