INL Night at The Spud Kings
If you’re a fan of hockey and you live in East Idaho, you won’t want to miss the INL Night at the Spud Kings! INL is teaming up with the Spud Kings hockey team on Thursday, February 19th at the Mountain America Center in Idaho Falls for what is sure to be a fun and exciting night. Not only will INL be sponsoring a fantastic hockey game, but they have also chosen to partner with The Idaho Foodbank to help raise funds during the game which will go towards addressing food insecurity across East Idaho.
That night, all of the players on the Spud Kings will be wearing co-branded INL/Spud Kings jerseys, with those same jerseys getting auctioned off during the game. All of the proceeds from the jersey auction will go directly to The Idaho Foodbank and will allow us to continue providing nutritious food throughout our communities on the East side of the state.
Help us spread the word to get as many hockey fans as possible there and bidding on the jerseys! The goal is to raise enough funds to provide up to 40,000 meals to people in need, so we hope to see you there!

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!
