Walk for HOPE
Support our 20th annual Walk for HOPE — Sunday, May 17, 2026. Since our first walk, we have raised over $1,000,000 to fight food insecurity in our communities. This year, our goal is $150,000 and we cannot get there without you. Donations are collected through June 28, 2026.
Food insecurity in Massachusetts is growing. According to a 2025 report by The Greater Boston Food Bank and Mass General Brigham, 37% of Massachusetts households experienced food insecurity in 2024, nearly double the 2019 rate. Approximately 2 million adults in our state cannot consistently count on their next meal.
Our food pantry in Framingham, along with the partner pantries and kitchens we support across Greater Boston, are on the front lines of this challenge every week. The Walk for HOPE helps fund that work.
Donate directly to our fund that will help alleviate food insecurity!
