You never know who’s battling hunger. In Appalachia, 1 in 5 people face food insecurity which impacts far too many children, their families, and seniors in the region each year. September is Hunger Action Month, and Christian Appalachian Project (CAP) is raising awareness about food insecurity in Appalachia through the organization’s annual Hunger Walk event.   

This year through Hunger Walk, CAP hopes to collect 25,000 pounds of food and raise $19,700, which represents the 19.7% of people in Appalachia facing food insecurity.
