WAMFAC� Project Initiative 2010 will be a one mile walk throughout certain targeted New Jersey areas, and we will have a distribution site in each city we walk through. The walks will begin at the same time in each city, and they will culminate with a food delivery at designated �distribution sites.� The food deliveries will be distributed to 400 families in each �walked through� municipality. No item will be sold and all items will be given away.
This year's WAMFAC� (Walk-a-Mile For-a-Child) Project Initiative is a collaborative effort being sponsored for the benefit of the Feed The Children organization in addition to some of our New Jersey children living below the poverty level.
There are approximately 2,090,505 children living in New Jersey families of which 222,090 are poor living below the poverty level. The goal of WAMFAC� Project Initiative 2010 is to heighten awareness regarding this society ill while at the same time provide some relief to its young New Jersey neighbors. We believe it does �take a whole village to raise a child,� and our Walk-a-Mile For-a-Child Collaboration is one way of making the trumpet sound so that the villagers hear their neighbors� cry.
