We got a call from Rita last week thanking us for the emergency food box we were able to provide for her and her two young children. She was “shocked” by the fresh produce in addition to the meat, nonperishables and bread. We even had milk & eggs to give away!

“Everything looks so delicious. It’s just such a blessing to us,” she said. “The kids loved the special treat bags and are requesting I make mac & cheese tonight.”

THIS IS WHY WE WALK!  The 10th annual Common Heart Hunger Walk is Sunday, March 1!

You can help ensure that neighbors like Rita don’t go to bed hungry by walking with us as we take steps to end local hunger. Registration is $35 for adults and $15 for children ages 12 and younger and includes a T-shirt. A family discount of $125 is available for households of 5 or more.

Participants are encouraged to collect donations from family and friends to help in the effort to feed families challenged by food insecurity. Prizes will be awarded to the top fundraising teams and individuals. 

**Special for our 10th Hunger Walk! We’ll be hosting a food drive and challenging each participant to bring 10 nonperishable items with them in honor of our 10th walk.**
