Walk to Feed the Hungry 2017

October 19, 2017 ICNY

Filed Under: New & Noteworthy

Date: Saturday, October 28, 2017
Time: 9:00 am — 1:30 pm
Location: Riverside Park (79th Street Entrance & Riverside Drive)

Organized by the Buddhist Global Relief (BGR), Walk to Feed the Hungry 2017 is a 3-mile charity walk for hunger relief and education to women and children in developing countries, followed by a luncheon.

BGR was founded by Ven. Bhikkhu Bodhi in 2008 for hunger relief, as well as education to women and children in the States, India, Haiti, and other countries. He founded BGR because of his personal experience of starvation during his early monastic life in Sri Lanka, and as a remedy to the dearth of Buddhist charitable organizations revealed following the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami. Through BGR, there are tens thousands of women and children freed from child marriage and social injustice.

Please walk with us to reshape the world in a better place!

Each step of you can change the lives of a thousand people!
