“No One Walks Alone” is designed to make sure each veteran in the Ohio Valley knows they are not alone.
About this Event

Welcome to No One Walks Alone Event!

Some studies have shown that as many as 18 Veterans are lost each day to suicide.

It’s scary to talk about and even more frightening for our veterans who are struggling with mental health issues and other challenges they feel they have no way out of.

“No One Walks Alone” is designed to make sure each veteran in the Ohio Valley knows they are not alone. Their fellow veterans are there for them. There are resources available. There is hope.

WTRF-TV is proud to organize “No One Walks Alone” for a third year.

“No One Walks Alone” will be held on Saturday October 11 at West Virginia Northern Community College in Wheeling.

All proceeds will benefit Helping Heroes.

The non-profit is in the middle of transforming the former Columbia Gas building on 16th Street, which will expand their office space and allow for additional resources for homeless veterans and Veteran families, like mental health and residential services.

Participants in “No One Walks Alone” will walk for as long as they would like but we will have a time running for 50 minutes to honor the 50th Anniversary of the Vietnam War.

For all Veterans in attendance there will be a resource fair filled with organizations they can join for a sense of togetherness or services they may need to help.

Guest speakers will also be sharing their stories.

Registration will be open a week before the event.

Check in and day of registration begins at 9:00 a.m.

There will be a ceremony of remembrance at 9:30 a.m. and then the walk will begin after.

Organizations and resources for veterans will be available until Noon. We encourage people to stay and enjoy the morning as a community to show our veterans that we support them!

The minimum donation is $25 per person, but please feel free to give more if you are able.

$25 will get you one of our No One Walks Alone shirts, that you can pick up at the day of the event at registration. After your the checkout asks for your payment, you will need to provide your name, phone number, email, and shirt size.
