Support the 17th Annual Save Our Homes Walk

 

VIRTUAL WALK: Sunday, June 14, 2020

As a result of COVID-19 Our Walk  is now VIRTUAL!

The fundraising must go on as the need for housing support is greater than ever! Our friends and neighbors have lost jobs and are struggling with illness and other challenges on an unprecedented scale.

Although there is an eviction moratorium currently, that does NOT mean tenants do NOT owe rent.

Many of our Somerville residents are not eligible for unemployment, SNAP or other assistance due to immigration status, and many in our community, will face eviction when the moratorium ends unless we help. Existing rental assistance funds are being depleted at a rapid rate as the need grows so this is where YOUR fundraising counts!

Can you help to reach our goal of $40,000 for emergency rental assistance?

I’m in, where do I sign up?

  • There is no registration, no fees, just use the link below and either click:
