Sip to Support with The Human Bean
The Human Bean in Treasure Valley is hosting its Annual Food Drive on Friday, August 8. On this special day, one dollar for every drink sold will be donated to The Idaho Foodbank to support food assistance programs locally.
While many food distribution centers receive donations during the holidays, hunger doesn’t know a season. So each year, The Human Bean opts to host a giveback event during the summer months when pantry stocks are generally low and the need is greater. Last year, all of The Human Bean locations across the U.S. were able to collectively fund the equivalent of 202,998 meals!
Customers are invited to visit The Human Bean on August 8 and raise a cup to fight hunger. Your drink purchases on this day have the power to make someone else’s day easier, healthier, and better!

Ada County Crop Hunger Walk
Sponsored by:Crop Hunger Walk
The Ada County CROP Hunger Walk invites you to join our walk to celebrate CROP Hunger Walk’s 50th Anniversary--this is Ada County CROP Hunger Walk’s 38th year! CROP Hunger Walks help hunger efforts locally, nationally and globally.
25% of all funds generated from our walk will be designated to the Idaho Foodbank and remain in Idaho to end hunger here.
Walkers enjoy the 3.4 mile route on the greenbelt as well as downtown Boise. We walk 3.4 miles because that is the distance many people in our world have to walk to access water. A one mile route is available for folks who are unable to do the longer walk.
Please join us October 13th to end hunger one step at a time.
Together, we can help end hunger in our community and around the world!
