Jimmy Wayne has a big heart and hopefully a great pair of walking shoes. To help America's homeless Jimmy will launch the "Meet Me Halfway" campaign Jan. 1st. That's when he will start a solo walk from nashville to Phoenix, AZ - yes he is going to walk halfway across the USofA. 1400 miles!
It's going to be tough and Jimmy knows it. "It's going to be cold, rainy and maybe even snowing and that ground I sleep on at night is going to be really hard. But that's what the homeless are dealing with each and every winter they go without a home of their own."
The goal of "Meet Me Halfway" is to bring attention to the issue and raise money. Jimmy really wants to focus on groups that reach out to teens and young adults who are at risk - thou all organizations that help the homeless will benefit as well.
Jimmy says, "Our country is too great for us to have people who are suffering so...We as a nation have got to end homelessness and we've got to help these kids."
