Hike for Hunger 2026

Gesu helps bridge the meal gap for many people. Stats show that 1 out of 6 people in NE Ohio do not know where their next meal is coming from. Did you know that Cleveland’s child poverty rate has been consistently among the highest of large U.S. cities. Please help fight hunger and food insecurity by using the following link: https://gesu.com/hike. Or visit the Gesu School website to click on the DONATION BUTTON.
