Find fundraising and promotional resources, tools, and ideas to help participants and teams recruit and raise critical anti-hunger funds for The Walk for Hunger– 2024.
Raise Money. Fight Hunger.
Welcome to the beating heart of The Walk for Hunger’s impact. Your fundraising connects households and communities to critical food programs, provides immediate food relief to people and families facing hunger, and advocates to make food more accessible and affordable for everyone in Massachusetts.
Whether you're a seasoned walker or a first-timer, this is your chance to make a difference for our community. We need your help raise $1.3 million to fund our state-wide solutions that make food affordable and accessible for food insecure people and families in Massachusetts. We need your help to reach this goal!
