Glen Lerner Injury Attorneys Supports the 2017 STH Walk

Glen Lerner Injury Attorneys is proud to have provided support for the 18th annual Sojourner Truth House Walk for STH on June 10th, 2017 from 8-11 am. Sojourner Truth House (STH), a ministry of the Poor Handmaids of Jesus Christ, held the event to support the mission of STH to provide help and hope for homeless and at-risk women and their children and other families in need in Gary and Northwest Indiana.

Last year, STH served an average of 2,092 clients each month, providing homeless women with individualized services to help them regain self-sustainability and assisting community clients with meeting their families’ basic emergency needs. For us, having witnessed firsthand STH at work, it is evident that they are maximizing every dollar and every inch of their facility to impact the lives of some of the most vulnerable in Gary, Indiana.

The Chicago personal injury firm was a sponsor of the event and furnished refreshments for walkers, volunteers, vendors and staff on walk day. Over 500 fundraising walkers participated, and to date, the event has raised $114,418!
