Jimmy Wayne Walk for Foster Kids a Success 

By Nancy Wilson

Congrats to Jimmy Wayne!    He triumphantly finished his seven month 1700 mile walk in Phoenix yesterday on a broken foot.  Jimmy started his "Meet Me Halfway" journey in Nashville on New Year's Day to raise awareness for foster kids, who are in danger of aging out of the program.  Jimmy is a product of the foster care system himself, after a caring couple took him at the age of 16, homeless and helpless.  Jimmy received much support on his trek thru his website and fans who walked with him.    "It's been worth it, one step at a time," Jimmy told the Tennessean.  Read more here.
