'I've been going to the Knockout Homelessness event for a few years now and really just came to appreciate the event for its ability to raise money and unite the community around this cause and start to get to know more about what the mission is doing and how they are doing their world. And when I was asked to participate and help the cause it was a no-brainer,' said Whiting.
The event takes place on February 18 and tickets are available until the end of this week.
