We gratefully acknowledge over 1,500 Heart & Sole Walkers who rallied the support of their friends, neighbors, and coworkers to raise nearly $1.6 million to feed the hungry. Heart & Sole Walkers who raised more than $1,000 are also part of our Leadership Circle.

“I did the Walk for Hunger to honor the memory of my twin sons. It helped me turn a tragedy into something beautiful that touched the lives of hungry families in Massachusetts.”

“For the past 20 years, The Walk for Hunger has been a spring ritual for me. Knowing that many local families benefit from this event helps make the Walk a little easier. We always end the day saying we will do it again next year.”
