An evening filled with fun for the whole family will open in August, and attendees will be showing their support for those fleeing domestic violence.
YWCA Hanover is hosting Walk a Mile in Her Shoes, which will challenge community members to take on a walk while wearing high heels. It is intended to be a fun way to raise awareness, and it is especially geared towards men.
The walkers will all take a one-mile-long route while wearing red high heels, and other footwear will also be welcome. They can do so on their own or as part of a team, and each step will make an impact. Monies raised will be utilized in funding YWCA programming aimed at addressing domestic violence. Afterwards, there will be dinner and a presentation of awards, as well as a silent auction, raffles, and fun for the family, including a dunk tank and corn hole.
Not-for-profit events often serve as both funding and awareness raisers, and a poster printing company can be called upon for help. It can offer products and services at various price points, with one for almost every budget.
The 2026 Walk a Mile in Her Shoes celebration will be staged at Moul Field on Friday, August 7. More details, including information for potential sponsors, are available on its ticketing site.
