Dear Editor:

I want to encourage people to participate in the Tenth Annual Walk for Hunger on November 27, 1998, at the City Park. This family 5k fun walk will benefit area food pantries and homeless shelters.

Pledge forms are available at all local grocery stores. Or, you can call 1-800-000-0000 for more information. If you can not participate in the walk, but would like to make a donation, please send your check or money order (made out to "Walk for Hunger") to: Walk for Hunger, 805 Anystreet, Suite 100, Anytown, Anystate, 80201.

Whether you walk on November 27 or send in a donation, please help make sure that no one goes hungry this holiday season. Thank you in advance for your support.

Sincerely,




John Doe
Walk for Hunger Volunteer Coordinator
