Voice of Care

VOICE OF CARE's Mile for Mileage Challenge will take place on July 21, 2018 AND on August 18, 2018. Register at www.voiceofcare.org then start your team at www.MightyCause.com. Check in and walk: 10 am - 12pm, Picnic: 11am - 1pm. July 21 at St. Peter Lutheran Church in Schaumburg, Illinois and August 18 at Castaldo Park in Woodridge, Illinois. Lace up your sneakers and walk…or don’t. Even those on vacation and people with mobility issues can participate, as actual walking is not mandatory. People of all ages and abilities can participate in Voice of Care fun and inclusive Mile for Mileage Challenge.  This pledge walk helps support this Christian ministry serving people with disabilities, their caregivers, and the congregations reaching out to them. Individual walkers and teams can register online at www.voiceofcare.org and create their own online fundraising page at MightyCause to make pledge gathering convenient. The Mile for Mileage event includes a mile-long walk on wheelchair accessible sidewalks. Registration includes a box lunch, bottled water and a t-shirt. Prizes will be awarded to the individual, family, and team who raise the most money in pledges. The walk will occur rain or shine. Mile For Mile helps defray the $15,000 in mileage expenses incurred by Voice of Care staff each year as they travel across the region ministering at facilities and training churches and individuals to bring the Word to people with developmental disabilities and their caregivers. Those without access to a computer or churches desiring to register as a group can call 630.234.1491. Donations are also accepted via check payable to Voice of Care and mailed to Voice of Care, P.O. Box 251, West Chicago, IL 60186.
