15th Annual Walk for Change - Thanks to the MEN!!!

On April 27th, almost 100 male leaders got together and walked for change to END voilence against women and children. Being the former, I walked too!

Here’s Jeff, Me, and my husband (and silent Vision team member!), Adam before the trek around Salisbury St., Park Ave., Highland St. and Main St.

Fellow Worcester Business Owner Mike Covino of the Niche Hospitality Group (you know, BOCADO, Block 5 and Mezcal!) walked with us and helped to raise money.

Lieutenant Governor Timothy P. Murray spoke for a few minutes, revving up the crowd and helped promote the ideas of change. Kim Dawkins, Leader of the Rape Crisis Center of Central Massachusetts was on hand to lead the event and kick off the walk (she worked so hard to pull this together - great job Kim!!).

We saw a lot of well-known leaders there, and from my perspective, special kudos go to Jose Rivera - Worcester’s own World Boxing Champion. To participate in a walk that helps “keep it in the ring,” it shows him as a classy example of change and leadership. Thank you!
