On Sunday, October 2nd, join hundreds of men, women and children at scenic Fort Steilacoom Park in Tacoma to walk and run to feed the hungry in Pierce County, Washington.

Last year approximately 900 walkers raised nearly $250,000. Our goal this year is to have 1,200 participants, and raise more than $350,000 in pledges, which help fund local food banks and other food distribution organizations. Register today!
