One Hour Personal/Professional Growth Convo Credit Available to Presentation and Walk Participants
Walk starts at Belmont’s Beaman Student Life Center and ends at the Vanderbilt University Bookstore.
Sponsored by Belmont University, Vanderbilt University and United: For Change.
Belmont students are invited to join the band Hanson for its ‘Take the Walk’ tour, a barefoot optional, one-mile walk to raise awareness of poverty and AIDS in Africa. Participants will start at Belmont University with a presentation by Hanson and then walk from the center of Belmont’s campus to the Vanderbilt bookstore where Hanson will sign their book, Take the Walk, and perform three acoustic songs. The book will be available for purchase at the Beaman Student Life Center prior to the walk. Students can charge the book to their Belmont accounts.
The walk will raise funds to support one of five causes, with one dollar donated by the ‘Take the Walk’ campaign for each walker. The band will educate students on the issues surrounding the walk and help connect them with existing efforts on the Belmont and Vanderbilt campuses and the Nashville community. Personal/Professional Growth convocation offered for participating in presentation and walk.
