Steps4Change: A 25km Walk to End Homelessness

Join Us on September 29th, 2024

Walk with Purpose, Stride for Change

Join the homeless warriors from Goodna Street Life in the fight to end homelessness. Homelessness is a pressing issue in our community, affecting thousands of individuals and families. On Sunday the 29th of September, we invite you to take action by joining us for a 25km walk event dedicated to raising awareness and funds to combat homelessness. Together we can take meaningful steps towards creating a brighter future for those in need.

We will be walking from Helen's Haven, 8/5 Smiths Rd Goodna to Musgrave Park. You can choose to do the full 25km, or join in at any of the checkpoints.

Goodna Street Life are raising awareness and funds to help get people off the streets, and into homes, and we need your help. So get your walking shoes on, and get your friends and family involved, and take the first step towards the end of homelessness.

Raise funds by asking your friends and family to sponsor your journey, with prizes awarded for best times, and funds raised.
