Fundraising Resources

The Walk for Hunger is a community effort to raise money for programs and solutions that help our neighbors access food with dignity.

The more we raise, the more good we do. Our goal for The 2026 Walk for Hunger is to raise $1 million to invest in helping neighbors access food with dignity. This will only be possible with your personal fundraising!

Here are step-by-step guides, resources, and tips to manage and promote your fundraiser and reach your goal!

You may have noticed your fundraising pages are powered by Classy. Put simply, Classy offers fundraising software for nonprofits, and Project Bread uses Classy to power the fundraising for The Walk for Hunger. 

When you see reference to your "Classy fundraising page" we mean your fundraising page for The Walk for Hunger, which is hosted through Classy. When you sign in to manage your fundraiser, you are signing into Classy.

• A personal fundraising page is created for each participant at registration.

• A team fundraising page is created for teams, too.

  • Team fundraising pages can be managed by the captain.

  • People can donate directly to your team fundraiser, or to the personal fundraiser of someone on a team—gifts to a personal fundraising page will show up on the team fundraising page to help reach your team goal.

Heart & Sole is what we call Walk for Hunger participants who raise $500 in their personal fundraiser! You can tell who is a Heart & Soler on the day of the Walk because they stand out in a special T-shirt that lets people know they're a top fundraiser and passionate supporter of our mission.

As a Heart & Soler, you'll earn:

• An exclusive Heart & Sole shirt to show you’re a top supporter

• VIP check-in

• Access to the Heart & Sole tent on the Common, with breakfast included
