Step Up. Stop Hunger.

In partnership with the Atlanta Community Food Bank and local faith organizations. Through this event, ECF supports hunger-related ministries across the Diocese of Atlanta, helping to provide meals, stock food pantries, and address food insecurity in our communities. By walking, running, or donating, participants play a vital role in ensuring that families in need have access to nourishing food.

Plus, it’s always fun for our parishes to compete for the coveted Bishop’s Cup prize which includes a trophy and an ECF grant for outreach.

Parking

Street parking is available as well as a parking lot a couple of blocks away. Following the service, you can either move your car or take our shuttle to the Hunger Walk Run:

  • Moving Your Car: Parking is available near The Home Depot Backyard if you would like to move your vehicle after the service. Parking passes can be purchased online (purchase before March 13 to avoid a price increase).
  • Shuttle: The Diocesan Youth Commission will have two 15-passenger vans for anyone who would like to leave their cars at AJCRH and shuttle to and from the event. If you don’t want to wait for a shuttle back to AJCRH after the race, we recommend moving your car to one of the event decks near The Home Depot Backyard.
