Be part of the Y Hunger Heroes! Grab your gym shoes and a bottle of water, and go for a walk or run with us to raise money for food insecurity in our community! Did you know that last year, the YMCA of Greater Cincinnati fed more than 7,000 neighbors in need? With your help, we can do more. The YMCA Hunger Heroes will participate in the 16th Annual Hunger Walk & 5K Run on Memorial Day, Monday, May 26th. You can support the Y’s efforts by participating or donating to the Y Hunger Heroes team. All dollars raised through registration or donation will go directly to the Y’s efforts to address food insecurity in our community.
