Capital Area Community Services Inc.

Walk for Warmth to raise money for low-income families

By Spartan Newsroom | February 21, 2014

By Daniel Hamburg
Mason Times staff writer

This Saturday, hundreds of people across Ingham County will brave the cold to raise money for those in need. The 24th annual Walk for Warmth will help the Capital Area Community Services, Inc. continue its services, and help more people in need this winter. Frigid temperatures throughout Michigan have hit many low-income families especially hard. Marina Poroshin, the rural Ingham center coordinator for the Capital Area Community Services, Inc., hopes that people in Ingham County can help those in need. “We walk in the cold because we want people to realize how it feels to live in the cold,” Poroshin said.
