Why Hike for Hunger?
New Mexico is one of the hungriest states in the country. Thousands of our neighbors struggle to fill their empty bellies every month. The reasons for their lack of food vary: low wages, rising cost of living, expensive health issues, job loss, and other life struggles. Fatigued parents go without to make sure their children eat. Too many kids start the day hungry, unable to focus in school. After a lifetime of working, New Mexico seniors face the hard choice: “Do I buy my medication or food?”

Hunger is a serious, and often invisible, problem in New Mexico. By hiking with us on October 22, you can help Rio Grande Food Project continue filling the empty bellies of children, youth, adults, and seniors this year.

All Hike for Hunger proceeds benefit Rio Grande Food Project!

Register online by October 5th and get a Hike for Hunger T-shirt! Sorry! Too late to get a T-shirt by registering, but we will have a limited number of shirts for sale the day of!

Ask family, friends and colleagues to support you by the number of steps or miles you complete or giving a one-time donation. Reach out via Social Media, Email, Phone, or In Person.
