One month and counting!

The 30th Annual Walk Against Hunger is one month away – on Sunday, May 5!  Where have the months gone?  Where have the years gone?

I hope you will consider supporting the Walk Against Hunger – it’s the largest anti-hunger fundraiser in the state and more important than ever.  Foodshare has seen a 30% increase in demand at local food pantries since the start of the recession.  And while the economic forecast may be looking a little brighter, that demand has not changed, for the people we serve were the first to be hurt by a bad economy and will be the last to recover. 

You can support the Walk Against Hunger in any of several ways:
·         Come out and Walk.  You get to raise funds for your favorite anti-hunger organization and be part of the movement to end hunger.  To sign up for the Walk, go here.
·         Organize a team from your workplace, your house of worship, or a school.  To create a team, go here.
·         Volunteer that day.  To sign up for volunteer opportunities, go here.
·         Donate to someone who is walking.

I will be walking once again, and while I would love to have you join me, if you cannot, you can make a donation to support me in the Walk Against Hunger, by going here.
