From the Organizer
Ashure Ministry, Hickory Soup Kitchen, and The Corner Table are proud to come together to host the 2026 Catawba County Hunger Walk!
We invite you to join us for this meaningful community event dedicated to fighting hunger right here in Catawba County. Proceeds from this year’s walk will support all three organizations as we work together to provide food, hope, and dignity to our neighbors facing food insecurity.
The Hunger Walk is more than just a fundraiser—it’s a powerful way to bring our community together while raising awareness about the ongoing challenge of hunger in our area.
We humbly ask for your support. Every dollar raised will be divided equally among Ashure Ministry, Hickory Soup Kitchen, and The Corner Table, and every dollar goes directly toward helping feed those who need it most.
Thank you for standing with us in this shared mission of compassion and care. Together, we can take meaningful steps toward ending hunger in Catawba County.
