CLEVELAND – A walk dedicated to helping people living in poverty in our area is just a few short weeks away.

The 3rd annual Friends of the Poor walk is happening at St. Edward High School in Lakewood and Richfield Woods Park on September 20. The walk is free for everyone to register, and begins at 9:00 a.m. in both locations.

Executive Director John Litten from the St. Vincent de Paul Society came to the FOX 8 studios to explain the big event happening right here in Northeast Ohio and around the country.
