This year's Milo's 5K for the Homeless was our biggest yet, with 100 more participants than last year joining the Long Island Coalition for the Homeless to walk, run, or wag in support of ending homelessness. The event raises awareness around a lesser-known barrier: most shelters don't allow pets, which can prevent people from seeking help. Come for the cause, stay for the dogs.

Run, walk, or wag with us at Milo's 5K for the Homeless on April 25 at Belmont Lake State Park. Support neighbors and their pets while enjoying a fun, dog-friendly event.

No one should face a housing crisis alone. The LICH Helpline connects Long Islanders to safety and support when they need it most. Thanks to a $10,000 gift from Window Nation, the Helpline can respond faster and help more people access the resources they need.
