PA HERO WALK UPDATES

2018 LANSDALE WALK ANNOUNCED

DEAR FRIENDS OF OUR VETERANS AND OF THE PA HERO WALK,

I am happy to announce that we have a date for the 7th ANNUAL PA HOMETOWN HERO WALK-------SATURDAY MAY 12, 2018.

This date for the ONE HOUR PA HOME TOWN HERO WALK has been established much earlier than in previous years thanks to the good work and cooperation of the Borough of Lansdale Police Department and the good folks at Trinity Lutheran Church. With this much of a head start I am confident that we can have the biggest and best walk of all.

The format and times will be the same as in all past years, starting and ending at Trinity Lutheran Church, 1000 West Main Street, Lansdale.

So please block out SATURDAY MAY 12, 2018 for our 7th ONE HOUR walk. We are most appreciative of all the great past support of donors, participants and sponsors.

If you would like to help get the word out, please share our Walk Brochure

Please see the Landsdale Walk Page for more details.

A Change in the PA Hero Walk Philosophy

Since the first PA Hero Walk in 2009, the group has raised and given the Wounded Warrior Project hundreds of thousands of dollars and have helped many veterans with their efforts. In the winter of 2013 the group decided to make a change in 2014 and dedicate their fundraising efforts to focus on Pennsylvania veterans from all branches and from all eras. Since this change the group has has received unanimous accolades for their decision to keep the money raised in Pennsylvania to help Pennsylvania veterans. The PA Hero Walk has rasied over $1.8 Million to date for our veterans.

The group continues to emphasize helping individual veterans that need help in the following areas listed below.

• HOUSING
• FOOD
• CLOTHING
• CAR AND HOME REPAIR
• APPLIANCE PUCHASE OR REPAIR
• UTLITY PAYMENTS
• AUTO PURCHASE

If you know of a Pennsylvania veteran in need of help, please refer them to their County Veterans Affairs Director or our website at PAHEROWALK.COM

Al Pulice, in conjunction with the Kiski Valley Veterans and Patriots Association (KVVPA), founded and created the PA Hero Walk and you can contact Al for any additional questions that you may have via email at alpulice@comcast.net or call Al at 412.862.1672

9th Annual PA Hero Walk

Back in 2009 we never imagined that the PA Hero Walk would be leaving the steps of the Philadelphia Art Museum nine years later. But here we are, eight years older, with the same intense passion to show Pennsylvania that we care about our veterans. Our goal this year, like every year, is to demonstrate the sacrifice that our men and women in uniform make for our freedom by taking two weeks and walking 320 miles. We also plan on raising $300,000 this year for our veterans!

Where do you fit into the PA Hero Walk? You can make a monetary donation to help our veterans. You can show your support by joining us in a segment of the walk in June. You can join us in one of the many towns along the route that hold a celebration for us and our veterans. Or you can just say hello as we walk along our 320 mile trail.
