Through The Walk for Hunger, the oldest continual pledge walk in the country, Project Bread provides millions of dollars each year in privately donated funds to more than 400 emergency food programs in 128 communities statewide. Project Bread also advocates systemic solutions that prevent hunger and that provide food to families in natural, everyday settings, including schools. Over the last four years, the organization has invested over $2 million in grants to community organizations that feed children where they live, learn, and play.
More about who we are
Project Bread is the voice of hungry people in Massachusetts. It is volunteers, Walkers, and donors that commit to helping year after year. It is city and school officials that help children eat nutritious meals in schools and in the summer. It is local anti-hunger networks that work together to help their communities. It is the state officials and community members that advocate for change. It is the emergency food providers that feed our hungry neighbors each day.
More about what we do
Project Bread funds over 400 food pantries, soup kitchens, and food banks all over Massachusetts. We run the only statewide hunger hotline that answers 37,000 calls a year from families in need. We work with schools to offer breakfast programs, and fund summer programs so that kids get a nutritious meal when school's out. The first Sunday in May each year, we run the oldest continual pledge walk in the country, Project Bread's Walk for Hunger.
