Below is an incredibly moving video of stories from our podiatry section recorded at our last event. This short video highlights the struggles and challenges caused by foot ailments. We desperately need more podiatrists at our events.
If this video touches your heart, as it has mine, pass it along to anyone who might be interested in volunteering. I would like to extend a special thank you to Dr. Bill who has worked tirelessly in this area.
Thank you,
Kara Zordel
Director, Project Homeless Connect
