We have now walked 160 miles to raise awareness of the hunger issues in our neighborhoods and the funds to support the fight against hunger. We want to send our sincerest thanks for your support this year (and past years) of our efforts. This was our 8th walk with Project Bread and The Walk For Hunger. This year, 42,000 people joined together to raise $3.6 million to provide food for 448 emergency food programs in our cities and towns. The funds will provide a hot meal or a bag of groceries for hungry families next winter.
Thank you for helping us raise over $1,200 in an effort to affect positive and systemic change to prevent hunger. Also the team we started at Baker House has now raised over $30,000 to fight hunger! We are proud.
Project Bread advocates change in our community and, while feeding the hungry now, attempts to implement changes to END hunger for the future. It is an organization we believe in and have chosen to support for the last eight years. We cannot express how grateful we are for your generosity and support in helping us strive for change in our community.

It was a gorgeous day for a walk this year and we started bright and early so we would be done in time to watch the Celtics game. After we crossed the finish line, we walked another mile back home and back to our pub to watch the game and finish off our mug cards! We figured it was a grand way to celebrate another successful Walk – we our now proud mug owners at our local pub.
