Building Change is hosting their 8th annual 22 Strong walk to honor and support United States Military veterans. The number 22 is significant to the event because it represents the average number of veterans who lose their lives to suicide every day. Building Change is dedicated to eliminating veterans suicide. In seven years of the 22 Strong walk, Building Change has donated over $400,000 to local and national organizations that directly impact veterans.
