Last Saturday, members, friends, and supporters of BOMF DC gathered to walk on behalf of BOMF in the 2010 Fannie Mae Help the Homeless Walkathon. BOMF is a first year beneficiary and had over 800 walkers register in support of BOMF!
The group met bright and early at the corner of 7th and Madison and enjoyed coffee, bagels, and football while waiting for the walk to begin. BOMF was pleased to welcome our new favorite 4-legged friend, Molly to walk on our behalf as well!
BOMF members, supporters, and friends posed for some group pictures in front of the Capitol and enjoyed some entertainment in the form of dancing from Executive Director, Autumn Campbell, and Program Director, Gretchen Gates. After the National Anthem, the BOMF team was off and walking. The BOMF group enjoyed the walk, taking action photos and utilizing the bullhorns to the fullest.
A huge thanks to Fannie Mae and the Help the Homeless Program for selecting BOMF as a beneficiary and allowing us to take part in such a great event to raise funds and awareness for homelessness. Also, another huge thanks to all the BOMF supporters, members, and friends who registered to walk on behalf on BOMF and joined us for the Walkathon!
