Women Fighting Hunger Annual Breakfast

Thursday, October 17, 2024
The Westin Copley Place, Boston

7:00 – 8:00 AM Networking and Coffee Reception
8:00 – 9:00 AM Coffee Talk and Program

Hunger is a big problem, and big problems call for big solutions. Since 2010, Women Fighting Hunger has been a catalyst for raising support, building awareness, and advancing advocacy for The Greater Boston Food Bank. Together, we have raised more than $2.5 million to address food insecurity in our communities. 

The annual Women Fighting Hunger breakfast brings together a compassionate group of business and community leaders who are committed to improving the health and well-being of communities across Eastern Massachusetts.  

The event begins with a Coffee Reception featuring barista stations, brunch bites, a fun photo booth, and more. This year, we are adding a captivating “Coffee Talk” discussion featuring our honoree, Randi Cutler, moderated by WCVB-Channel 5 icon Karen Holmes Ward. We will celebrate GBFB’s mission to end hunger here and highlight the essential role we all play in empowering families to put healthy food on their tables. 

Check back soon for more information and to reserve your ticket!
