Happy Mother's Day!
Today we celebrate all you mothers out there. It's a day to stop and thank you so, if you are a mother, thank you for all that you are and all that you do.
Very soon, we will be celebrating another momentous occasion. We're exactly one week away from this year's Virtual Walk Against Hunger on May 17th. This marks not only our first ever virtual event, but also the 30th year of this annual fundraiser helping support people experiencing homelessness and food insecurity with shelter, meals, and food boxes from our food pantry.
If you want to register to support the fundraiser and participate in the Walk, there's still time! Visit our event page to signup today. The first 1,000 registrants receive a free t-shirt, so grab yours now before they are gone.
Make an Honorary Gift
If you want to recognize your mom, that special woman in your life that was like a mother to you, or one of our frontline workers, you can donate to the Walk Against Hunger fundraiser in honor of that particular person.
Just follow these easy steps on our Event Page:
1) On the top banner, select the "Make an Event Donation" button
2) Check the box, "Dedicate my donation in honor or memory of someone"
3)Fill out the information about the Honoree and you're on your way!
Your gift will go towards supporting those in need in honor of your mom or that special person. We appreciate your support in helping to provide essential services in your community.
Are You Ready?
For all you walkers wondering how to get ready for our virtual event, we put together this Walk checklist for you:
- Mark your calendar for the LIVE! Broadcast - Starting at 12 pm EDT, we'll be hosting a LIVE! broadcast on Facebook that you won't want to miss!
- Plan your walk route - Establish your walk route ahead of time. We suggest bringing some sidewalk chalk so you can write encouraging messages to other people in your neighborhood!
- Follow @fitnh1 on Instagram- We'll be sharing your stories and posts as well as hosting LIVE streams throughout the day! Use #FITNHWalk to connect with us and the community of walkers (and those choosing to run!)
- Share your "WHY" with us - We'd love to hear why you're choosing to walk with us! Has FIT-NH personally touched your life? Are you walking in memory or in honor of a loved one? Share it with the community!
We are so excited to bring this event together and see all the various ways our attendees choose to participate this year in this virtual event on May 17th.
Sincerely,
~ The FIT-NH Family!
