Ada County Crop Hunger Walk

Crop Hunger Walks are community-based walk events held in cities and towns across the United States to raise funds for hunger relief. This year’s Ada County Crop Hunger Walk will be held on Sunday, October 12 at the Agriculture Pavilion in Julia Davis Park (the shelter between the Bandshell and the Zoo on the greenbelt/river side). Registration starts at 2:30 pm and the walk starts at 3:00 pm. The walk is a 3-mile loop, beginning on the greenbelt, then switching to streets downtown and then back to Julia Davis Park for the return. A one-mile loop will also be available.

Twenty-five percent of the funds raised will be donated to The Idaho Foodbank, whose mission is to nourish, educate, and advocate to support thriving, food-secure communities across Idaho. The other seventy-five percent will be given to Church World Service, a faith-based organization whose mission is to transform communities around the globe through just and sustainable responses to hunger, poverty, displacement, and disaster.

Pack the Plane

Sponsored by:Alaska Airlines

Upload Event Logo

“Pack the Plane” food drive campaign to help those in the communities that we live in. When you help pack the planes, you are helping your local food bank deliver programs to the front line of hunger.

While it may sound like we're physically packing cargo planes, that isn't actually the case -- Alaska Airlines virtually packing planes. The amount of cargo planes we "pack" is based on overall space and weight load capacity of a Boeing 737-400 freighter aircraft.

When Alaska first started the holiday food drive in 2009, the idea was to fill an entire virtual plane based on the weight of food and what a plane could hold space-wise. This effort grew over time to eventually include partnerships with local food banks as well as online donations. Thanks to your recent generosity, over the past six years Alaska Airlines raised nearly $765,000 and donated more than 47,000 pounds of canned goods to food banks across the country.

Last year, during our 13th annual "Pack the Plane" food drive, Alaska and Horizon employees packed the equivalent of more than 42 cargo planes. Working together, Alaska Airlines raised more than $214,000 in financial donations and collected 3,400 pounds of canned goods for local food banks, providing almost one million meals to those facing food insecurities in the midst of a global pandemic.

For The Idaho Foodbank, Alaska Airlines has a goal to raise $5,000 and gather food.
