Local nonprofit to host Third Annual Light the Night for Hope Walk

YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA) - A local nonprofit organization is spreading awareness for victims of domestic violence.

The Healing Journey will be hosting their Third Annual Light the Night for Hope Walk to spread awareness of domestic violence.

Cynthia Luna, the event coordinator, shared why she wants to continue to shine a light on domestic abuse victims.

"The whole metaphor about domestic violence being in the dark. And usually, a lot of the violence, it does happen in the night. So there is a reason why we are doing it in the evening, and the whole thing about us being light. Bringing light to the darkness," Luna explained.

The event will take place Monday, October 27 from 6:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m, beginning at Del Sol located in the area of Fourth Avenue and 16th Street.
