WINK Feeds Families Hunger Walk
Presented by Bill Smith Appliance & Electronics and the Copperleaf Charitable Foundation

Did you know that 1 in 8 people in SWFL will face hunger this year, including 1 in 5 children? That means they may not know where their next meal is coming from. The WINK Feeds Families Hunger Walk raises money to feed our hungry neighbors in Southwest Florida. For every $1 we raise, the Harry Chapin Food Bank can turn that into $8 worth of food. Help us make a difference. Make a donation or register your teams at: http://www.winkhungerwalk.com
