Winter Walk: A Mile in Her Shoes

Join us for our 33rd annual Winter Walk!

About the Campaign

Winter Walk: A Mile in Her Shoes highlights the harsh reality of women’s homelessness during the deadly cold of Chicago’s winters. Your support can make the difference between a woman struggling to survive alone on the street and a woman who is safe and warm in her own bed.


Your support of Winter Walk: A Mile in Her Shoes will have a significant impact on women who are homeless and struggling to survive in Chicago this winter. 

March 9th, 2025 from 1-3pm

Uplift Community High School

900 W. Wilson Ave

There will be a program with speakers at 1pm, with a one mile walk through Uptown while hearing a Sarah's Circle clients life story to follow.

Many of our women show up without identification. You can’t get a job, housing or any benefits without a valid ID. $100 can help pay to replace the IDs for 5 women

Our clients need to be able to get around the city. Go to appointments, apply for jobs, look at apartments, and live their lives. $250 will help 3 women get a CTA pass for one month.
