Building on the successes of more 10 years of WALKS FOR HUNGER. Thanks to all of our volunteers and donors!
Thousands of dollars and carloads of canned goods have been gathered to feed hungry people.
Early in her life, Debbie Powers found herself away from home and hungry. She never forgot the feeling and made a decision to always share her food with others. Then, in 2015, Debbie had a dream. She imagined a world where people would not go to bed hungry and began to work to make her dream a reality.
First volunteering for local food banks, she had the idea that one way she could help was to organize a walk for hunger. With canned food donations as the entry fee, she found sponsorship from local businesses and countless friends and sponsored her first walk for hunger in 2015.
An unqualified success, Debbie was able to donate more than $2,000 in cash and canned good donations to her local food bank. Sadly that food bank closed due to insufficient financial support. Debbie's passion to help grew larger and in 2017 her mission to feed hungry families expanded to include a partnership with a local Fresh Thyme store and weekly food pickup/delivery to support Acts 1:8 mission outreach. When Acts 1:8 closed in 2020, Debbie transferred her delivery to Lifewise STL, formerly known as Kingdom House.
Debbie's ultimate goal is to form a non-profit organization and to found her own food pantry serving low-income St. Louis families.
In the meantime, she'd welcome volunteers who can help sort and separate food for distribution each Sunday for the weekly food pickups to feed those who benefit from the outreach at St. Cronin's Non-Profit Organization.
