The Knoxville VA Community Based Outpatient Clinic (CBOC) hosted a VA 2K walk yesterday to raise awareness for homeless veterans.

Event participants included the physical education classes from Knoxville High School in their gym, with donations of health items gathered. Maureen Nichols with the VA CBOC tells KNIA/KRLS News she is grateful for all the support from the community and the schools who helped out. Donations are still being collected, whether it be monetary or a health item, at the CBOC. This is the second year the Knoxille CBOC participated in the walk.
