Hike for Hunger

12 mile ruck march along the Keystone Trail starting at Stinson Park and turnaround at Democracy Park and ending at Saint Matthew Evangelical Lutheran Church, 1725 South 60th Street, Omaha, NE 68106. Aim to carry 30 pounds of food items in your ruck.  If you don't want to carry the weight in your ruck or have additional donations, please bring your items to the starting line and drop it off. 

The food pantry will graciously accept all canned goods and food items, however here is a list of the most needed items:

Pancake mix

Syrup

Juice (that doesn’t need refrigeration)

Canned meat like Spam, chicken, tuna, and beef

Cereal

Beans – black, pinto, pork & beans – no green beans please

Bar Soap 

Laundry Soap

Keep in mind that these items are for families and canned goods should be limited to 15 ounce or less cans.  If you want to donate pasta or rice, please limit to 1 pound bags or boxes.

Some tips for the canned goods is to use the cardboard tray and saran wrap it to keep the cans from shifting during the ruck.  Please do not use tape as this will peel the label off the cans.
