BetterLife's Walk to End Hunger
BetterLife's Walk to End Hunger will be in Lincoln, NE on Sunday, August 8th. We'll be walking from 5pm-8pm at the Pius X Football Stadium! BetterLife's Lincoln location has chosen St. Francis Food Pantry (the CSS Lincoln food market program) as the hunger relief cause. Choose the distance you want to walk and enjoy games and a food truck. If you're not much of a walker yourself, you have the option to drive through, donate 10 lbs of food or $10.00, and we'll elect someone to take a lap for you!
BetterLife desired to do something to launch the new company in their member communities. Unfortunately, we all know that COVID-19 makes that difficult in early 2021. That’s why they decided to hold a BIG event for their first year as BetterLife, which they're referring to as their Signature Event. After many ideas and considerations, they landed on BetterLife’s Walk to End Hunger.
They've chosen a fundraising walk for a few reasons:
1. It’s accessible. Members of the community can participate in several ways on the day of the event by helping to volunteer or donate to the cause.
2. We all assume that by summer, COVID-19 should be less risky especially with an outdoor event. Members will likely be itching to get together and do something big to help the community too.
3. After 2020, it’s clear how important hunger relief organizations are in our communities, so they decided to make them the target of their fundraising efforts.
4. Their members have asked for a bigger presence in member communities. A fundraising walk helps get their name out into the community in a positive way.
