Invest in yourself while preventing homelessness.  Join Trust W.A.L.K. for Vets!

Trust W.A.L.K. for Vets is a 22 minutes a day, 22+ miles virtual event helping veterans who are homeless or at-risk of homelessness via the Kentucky Veterans Program Trust Fund (KVPTF), a charity supported by the Kentucky Department of Veteran's Affairs (KDVA).

Trust W.A.L.K. for Vets begins on Thurs, Oct 1 and ends on Thurs, Oct 22.  Participants can join the race until the close of the end of the 22nd day. $22 for general registration. $18 for veterans using the code coupon "vet" at registration check out. 

Trust W.A.L.K. for Vets  participants walk, jog, cycle, wheel, swim, etc. They "get moving" 22 minutes a day, individually, or as a socially distanced team, while challenging themselves and others.  

After making this fun investment in mental and physical self-care, participants go to the RESULTS tab on the race site to upload * pictures and log their mileage. Some participants choose to do a physical activity without mileage like aerobics, tai chi or yoga.  That's great!  Every 22 minutes is logged as a mile. 

KDVA ups the fun with 3 FB live event with prizes!  Members of community join the KDVA team in a  22 minute walk followed by a Q & A.  KDVA take questions from on-location walkers and the FB community a range of topics including benefits, cemeteries, women's veteran's programs and much more.  Events are scheduled for  Oct 4 and 18 with a treat of post-walk event on Oct 31.
