Fannie Mae Help the Homeless

MCCH had a successful Help the Homeless season. We are thankful for all the congregations, individuals, businesses, and community groups who partnered with MCCH to raise awareness and learn about homelessness. We had over 3,000 walkers and participants join with us making MCCH eligible to receive an additional $50,000 bonus from Fannie Mae. This year marked the last Fannie Mae Help the Homeless Walkathon on the National Mall, making this HTH season even more special.

Did You Know?

More than 10 years ago, MCCH reached out to Fannie Mae to find a way to involve more youth in their annual Help the Homeless program. We knew that many more young people and their families wanted to support the homeless than those that took part in the Walkathon on the National Mall. Fannie Mae took our idea to heart and started the Help the Homeless Mini-Walk program at schools and congregations. These local walks have engaged thousands of people each year to raise awareness about homelessness and funds for our programs.
