We are supporting Thurston's Hunger Walk, an annual fundraiser to help two local agencies: The Community Kitchen & the Thurston County Food Bank. At the end of February, millions of Americans lost the pandemic boost to their food stamps (now known as SNAP.) That translates to dramatically less access to groceries - exactly when inflation and food costs reach near 40-year highs. Your donations to support our neighbors experiencing hunger - are now more important than ever!
This year’s walk will take place at Huntamer Park (https://laceyparks.org/parks_trails/huntamer-park/) 618 Woodland Square Loop SE, Lacey on Sunday May 7th beginning sharply at 3:00 pm.
Enjoy camaraderie and live music while you walk as little or as much as you like. You can donate through our "team" site: https://app.99pledges.com/.../thurston.../christianscientist
If you prefer, you could make out a check to: Thurston's Hunger Walk and mail it to: Thurston County Food Bank, P.O. Box 11549, Olympia, WA 98508 with "Scientists" in the memo line. Remember, give what you can and walk if you want!

This is a kid and dog friendly activity! (The park does require your dog to be on a leash.)
