Why: A 5 Kilometer Walk/Run to Benefit CHUM (CHUM is people of faith working together to provide basic necessities, foster stable lives, and organize for a just and compassionate community. CHUM is a 501c3.) and The Steve O’Neil Apartments.

Steve O’Neil spent his life in Duluth working for Duluth’s most vulnerable families. His legacy will continue, as the new apartments and emergency shelter will not only help those families, but will also help fulfill Duluth’s vision of becoming a city that welcomes the stranger, feeds the hungry, and houses the homeless. The Steve O’Neil Apartments will be a major step in preventing long-term, chronic homelessness for families. The Emergency Family Shelter will address the initial crisis when a family becomes homeless.

The Steve O’Neil Apartments are an $11.2 million project that includes 44 units of permanent supportive housing and 6 units of emergency shelter for families with children who have experienced long-term homelessness. The Steve O’Neil Apartments are being developed by One Roof Community Housing and Center City Housing. CHUM will operate the Emergency Family Shelter and provide supportive services to the families living in the apartments. From: http://www.chumduluth.org/
