What to Expect
“Together we walk for awareness, healing, and change.”
On June 14th, we invite you to join us as we step forward in unity. The 1st Annual Dante’s Light Walk is more than an event; it is a movement to illuminate the dark reality of gun violence and honor the lives it impacts every day.
By joining us, you are helping to keep Dante’s light shining and standing in solidarity with families who have experienced the unimaginable.
This walk marks the official launch of the Dante’s Light Foundation. Our mission is rooted in transformation, community support, and the belief that hope can be rebuilt.
Our Commitment to the Community:
Advocacy & Mentorship: Guiding our teens toward a brighter future.
Community Outreach: Feeding the homeless and providing essential resources.
Grief Support: Standing by families who have lost loved ones to violence.
Opportunity & Hope: Creating paths for success within our neighborhoods.
Awareness: Educating the public on the true, lasting impact of gun violence.
Investing in the Future: As part of our inaugural mission, the foundation is proud to announce we will be paying the school fees for two 8th-grade students to support their transition into high school.
