Hundreds of people showed up on a bitterly cold day to celebrate the sixth annual Walk for Warmth. They heard a trio of speakers champion dignity, justice and concern for all before walking around the block surrounding First United Methodist Church. As Interfaith Action of Evanston’s largest fundraiser, this event funds the Overnight Shelter, which provides life-saving warmth from mid-October through mid-May, to those without homes.
