She said that the event will support homeless veterans. Since it is a "walk or roll" event, participants in wheel chairs or walking can join in on the event any time between 11:00AM - 1:00PM on Wednesday, May 17, 2023. Participants are encouraged to bring new personal products for homeless veterans: undergarments, socks, shirts (preferably in LARGE sizes), non-perishable foods and hygiene products like toilet paper, shampoo, razors and more.
