Emergency Food Network is hosting the 38th annual Hunger Walk & 5K Run at Fort Steilacoom Park! Participants walk or run around Waughop Lake and then head back to the finish line for family-friendly activities and live music. Proceeds from this event benefit EFN, a local non-profit that distributes more than 14 million pounds of food annually to 71 food pantries, meal sites, and shelters in Pierce County to help our neighbors in need.
Registration Booth volunteers help check-in walkers and runners, select their t-shirts, and direct them to the starting line! Coffee, pastries, and donuts are available for all volunteers!
Additional volunteers assistance is needed for:
- Route Set Up
- First Aid Station
- Route Marshals (direct volunteers along the route)
- Kid Zone (face painting and bouncy house)
- Course Spirit (cheer racers on as they cross the finish line!)
Check out all the Hunger Walk volunteer positions, times, and details here: http://www.efoodnet.org/hungerwalk2018/volunteer/
To register to volunteer or if you have any questions, please contact EFN's Coordinator of Volunteer Activities at (253) 584-1040 or merrit@efoodnet.org.

Mission Statement
The mission of Emergency Food Network is "to provide Pierce County with a consistent, diverse and nutritious food supply so that no person goes hungry."
Description
"Currently, 1 in 10 people in Pierce County face food insecurity, and this need is continuing to rise. Through our 75+ Partner Programs (food pantries, meal sites, and shelters) all over Pierce County, EFN distributed over 14 million pounds of food in 2023 to our neighbors in need, including fresh produce grown at EFN’s Mother Earth Farm. This work was made possible by our 2,000+ volunteers, who worked over 12,000 hours in 2023. Volunteer work is vital in helping EFN pursue our mission of ensuring no person goes hungry. Volunteer opportunities include the Repack Project, Home Delivery, EFN’s Mother Earth Farm, and special events throughout the year. We hope you will join us!"
