Winter Walk believes that ending homelessness starts with ending stigma. Our mission is to uplift the voices of those who have experienced homelessness, breaking down negative images and stereotypes through storytelling and education. Angel, whose story was featured at our 2025 Winter Walk in Boston, has generously offered to tell you their story here on our blog. 

Our Winter Walks are a ‘Call to Action’ that bring together housed and unhoused individuals to walk side-by-side, creating a united community committed to addressing homelessness. It's a day when everyone—regardless of where they sleep—comes together to raise awareness and demand change.

For 2025, we’ve organized our list of the Top 10 Reasons to Register for Winter Walk 2025!
