Mark your calendars for the 2019 Des Moines Area Hunger Hike!
Join us on Sunday, October 13, 2019, at 1:30pm at the World Food Prize Hall of Laureates in Downtown Des Moines. 100 Locust St, Des Moines, IA 50309.
Since 1969, Hikers have raised over $1 million dollars to help alleviate hunger in our community and abroad. Donations are distributed among nonprofit agencies and programs that provide food to those in need.
The Hunger Hike serves as a visible witness to the concern around food insecurity, both locally and globally, as hundreds of people of all ages, a coalition of institutions, organizations, denominations, and faiths gather to "walk that more may eat."
Bring your families, bring your pups, and bring your walking shoes! Join us as we take a walk through this beautiful city we love so much, raise awareness, and raise funds to fight food insecurity throughout Des Moines, the state of Iowa, and the world via our partnerships with a variety of area food insecurity organizations.
