Reality Tour

The Reality Tour will take you on a bus tour of poor neighborhoods in Rochester, as well as locations that represent some of our community’s real priorities. Learn about the daily problems faced by the poor, and the true impact of welfare reform and County budget cuts on the poor as well as the entire community!! Join us to discuss ideas of what we really need to do to end poverty in this community.

AN IMPORTANT NOTE - IF YOU SINCERELY WISH TO PARTICIPATE IN AND PHOTOGRAPH THIS EVENT, I (loret) WILL PAY FOR YOUR SEAT. House of Mercy is most worthy of support as is your learning more about social issues in the city. My only request is that you pay for your seat when you reserve it (do this as soon as you can) and I will reimburse you when you show me a single photograph from the tour. If you're having financial difficulty at this time, let me know and I can make arrangements but you must agree to attend if a reservation is made on your behalf!
