Walkers Needed to Walk for Hunger

Four faith-based groups are coming together to help fight hunger.  The Associated     Churches, The Salvation Army, The  Franciscan Center, and the Mission House are working to create awareness and fight the hunger problem in Allen County with Hunger Walk IV.  All the proceeds from the Hunger Walk will stay here in Allen County.  Walkers are needed the day of the walk, but Non-Walking walkers may make donations as well.

 The Lutheran Foundation will sponsor all gifts to
Hunger Walk VI up to $40,000!
