Hi, my name is Joni and I work at Hope Medical in Hood River as Center Director and a Client Advocate. I love that I get the opportunity to walk (wink, wink),most times more than 21 miles with women through seasons of their lives, seeing them grow and meet challenges with strength and beauty. 

On October 2nd, I will be walking for so many reasons; my kids that I just love to pieces, my clients who are amazing women, myself as I have faced lots of challenges in life as a single mom and am thankful for God's continued faithfulness in giving me strength and perseverance, for those who have supported me in being a parent, for truth to empower women to make better choices for their lives and the lives their life touches.....and I could go on and on!  :)

What about you..what brings you here? What would be some of your why's for supporting the Walk for Hope?
