An Interview With Meryl Sheriden, Chief Development Officer, Horizons for Homeless Children

We are also very proud of our newest endeavor, the Young Professionals Group. In May 2010, the Horizons for Homeless Children Young Professionals Group hosted its first 5K, entitled the "Route for Kids 5K, a run/walk to benefit homeless children." Over $25,000 was raised, and almost 300 people participated — many of whom are new donors and very energized about the work of Horizons for Homeless Children. The event had a small number of corporate and in-kind sponsors, and we anticipate growing as we move forward. The event was one of the year's highlights at Horizons for Homeless Children!
