Joining the Be(e) the Hope Walk is just one way to accomplish this mission. We hope you will join us for the Waynesburg University Be(e) the Hope Walk on Saturday, March 28.

A portion of the proceeds will benefit Team Hope, a suicide awareness and prevention group in Greene County, and the Waynesburg University Counseling Center.
