The walk benefits the Harry Chapin Food Bank. For every dollar raised, the food bank can produce $8 worth of food. Registration for the walk will take place at 8:30 a.m. and the walk will begin at 9:30 a.m. on Jan. 20 at the Miromar Outlet Mall in Estero. Visit the walk’s website to make a donation or register a team. This year, you can help make the Hunger Walk a successful event simply by participating in the “Meals for Harry” program and going out to eat!
