School Nutrition Association of Massachusetts is walking to help raise money to prevent and end hunger in Massachusetts!
Our team is proud to be participating in Project Bread's 51st Walk for Hunger & 5K Run on Sunday, May 5, and we are asking for donations to support community-based programs across MA that help people access and afford food.
The Walk for Hunger has long been a rallying cry for the people of Massachusetts to come together and support their neighbors. Hunger impacts 1 in 10 people in this state, and in some communities as many as 7 in 10.
The money raised by Walk participants like us will provide grants to hundreds of community-based programs that rely on this support—food pantries, hot meal programs, summer meals for kids, farm and garden initiatives, health center programs and more. Last year, the Walk supported 315 local programs in nearly 100 MA communities.
You are making a difference for the people who rely on these programs and moving us one step closer to an equitable society where everyone has access to the most basic of human needs—food.
