Walk the World

Walk the World is the world’s largest annual global fundraising event and was first launched by TNT in 2003.

 

Walk the World is a global advocacy and fundraising event to end child hunger. Taking place across 24 time zones in 24 hours, the day aims to put a spotlight on the problem of child hunger. Since Walk the World began eight years ago, it has mobilised over two million participants and fed over 200,000 children in school.

The aim of Walk the World is threefold: to raise awareness about hunger and WFP's work, to create employee engagement among TNT, Unilver and DSAM, and to raise funds for WFP's school feeding problem. The funds are used to support WFP's School Feeding Programme in Nicaragua, Cambodia, The Gambia, Tanzania and Malawi.
 

This event has the potential to bring awareness that every day we lose 25.000 people to hunger. More than many of the critical diseases combined. And we can win this battle. - Josette Sheeran (Executive Director WFP)
