Hundreds of people will walk around Santa Monica on Sunday to help eliminate hunger on the westside.

The Westside Food Bank is holding its 13th annual five-kilometer hunger walk to raise money for its operation which distributes food to more than 60 social service agencies locally. In conjunction with its “Extra Helpings Westside” program, the food bank distributes more than 3 million pounds of food a year.

The walk begins at Santa Monica High School’s Science Quad at 601 Pico Blvd. Registration begins at 11:30 a.m. and the walk starts at 1:30 p.m. For more information, call (310) 828-6016, ext. 18 or ext. 13.
