37th Annual Foodshare Walk Against Hunger
The 37th Annual Foodshare Walk Against Hunger will take place virtually from September 13 - 19, 2020! Online registration and fundraising is open and will remain open until then. Along with our Presenting Sponsor, Stop & Shop, and our hometown team the Hartford Yard Goats, participants are encouraged to find their own 1.5 mile course to walk to raise awareness of and resources for the issue of food insecurity in Hartford and Tolland counties. Funds raised from the Walk help support not only Foodshare but the partner programs that help us serve the growing number of people in Greater Hartford who struggle with hunger.
We will celebrate on social media and continue the traditions of fun, community building, with some special surprises all week long!
Join a team or create your own! It’s easy! Your fundraising efforts will help Foodshare continue to provide relief for people struggling with hunger, as well as support long-term efforts to increase access to healthy food while addressing the underlying issues that contribute to hunger.
