Chesterfield, Indiana – On Sunday, April 26, 2009, thirteen groups from all over Madison and Delaware Counties in Indiana came together at Millcreek Center in Chesterfield for their 3rd annual effort to help those who have became homeless. Last year this group raised over $78,000 through this ‘Homeward Bound Walk’.

We had the privilege of speaking with a lady that just about everyone knows and who has been one of the driving forces behind this wonderful effort, Mary Jane Lee with Alternatives of Madison County. She told us about this year’s effort and goals and about the current state of homelessness in Madison and Delaware Counties.

Another highlight of the day was a very special guest speaker, Deputy Mayor, Greg Graham of Anderson, Indiana.
