Friends of the Poor Walk

Are you looking for a fun way to help those in need in the Newton community? Then please join the Friends of the Poor Walk, taking place on October 1 at 1:30. The beautiful fall course will take walkers around Crystal Lake, beginning and ending at Sacred Heart Church (1321 Centre Street). This family-friendly event is being organized by the Society of St. Vincent de Paul, a charity that has been assisting people in Newton for over 100 years. Please visit fopwalk.org/event/2869 to register to walk with us (individuals and families welcome!), to donate to the event or to support a specific walker. All the funds raised will go to work right in our community, helping with food, clothing and housing-related assistance. If you have any questions, email svdp@sholnewton.org. Join the Friends of the Poor Walk – it’s only 1.5 miles but the funds will go a long way in helping those in need in Newton!
