The 11th Annual Sojourner Truth Walk: Honoring Youth Leaders

This event is named in honor of Sojourner Truth, an American abolitionist, women’s rights and economic justice activist, who escaped slavery and then fought to end it. She, along with many others, has served as an inspiration and role model for generations to come. We are walking in their footsteps! This year we are also lifting up youth leaders, as important contributors to political movements in Philadelphia and beyond. (Read more here.)

All proceeds benefit Camp Sojourner Girls' Leadership Camp, and help to fund scholarships for summer camp as well as free year-round creative arts and other leadership activities.
