DenUm Downtown Walking Tour - Sat, Oct 29

The Women of Purpose Circle is scheduled for the DenUm walking tour on Saturday, October 29, 2011 from 10:00am to noon. After the tour we will be enjoying lunch at SAME Café. DenUm has made the arrangements with the Café so they know to expect us for lunch.

The DenUm Downtown Walking Tour takes place in an area of Denver that has a high concentration of nonprofits working with homeless and low income families in Denver. It is also an area of redevelopment, with million dollar lofts overlooking those sleeping on the streets. The clash between these two drastically different socio-economic cultures has caused some conflict in the Denver community. The group will discuss these issues along with the services that agencies in this area provide during the tour. $7 per person.

All are welcome. Please contact Susan McCann if you can attend:
