It’s back and better than ever! Our fifth annual Move 2 Fight Hunger Challenge is officially here. Each year, participants across the country commit to getting active during the month of June, all while supporting our mission to reduce food waste and fight hunger. With every sign-up, 100 meals are provided to communities in need. Whether you're walking around your neighborhood or joining a virtual yoga session, every move matters.
Let’s fight hunger together for the 47 million Americans experiencing food insecurity, there’s still time to sign up!
This year, we’re encouraging participants to get creative, get moving, and make an impact. Need a little inspiration? Here are 10 ways you can get moving for Move 2 Fight Hunger:
1. Join Our Virtual Yoga Classes
We’re kicking off the challenge with a calming 20-minute Slow Flow & Breathwork session on June 5 at 5:30 est, perfect for beginners and all fitness levels. Then, we’ll celebrate National Yoga Day on June 21 at noon est with a 40-minute energizing flow. Both sessions are led by a certified instructor, Cede Littlejohn and no experience is required!
2. Take a Daily Walk
Sometimes the simplest form of movement is the most effective. Whether it’s a stroll during your lunch break, a dog walk, or a hike on the weekend, challenge yourself to track your steps and log your miles.
3. Host a Lunchtime Stretch Session
If you’re working remotely or in the office, a 15-minute group stretch can be a great way to connect with coworkers and get your body moving. Bonus points if you do it every day in June!
4. Bike for a Cause
Swap your car for a bike ride to the store, work, or just around your neighborhood. Not only will you reduce emissions, but you'll also rack up movement for the challenge.
5. Dance It Out
Put on your favorite playlist and have a solo dance party in your kitchen. Or better yet, invite your friends or family for a group dance break. It's fun, freeing, and definitely counts!
6. Set a Movement Goal With a Friend
Whether it’s a step challenge or a commitment to work out three times a week, friendly accountability can go a long way. Team up with your friends and create a group on the MoveSpring app or go solo. Either way, share your progress on social media and tag us using #Move2FightHunger.
7. Turn Chores Into Fitness
Cleaning your house? Mowing the lawn? Gardening? All of it counts! Add a little extra energy to these activities and count them toward your movement minutes.
8. Try a New Fitness Class
Explore your local gym or YouTube for free trial classes. From kickboxing to pilates to HIIT, switching it up keeps it fun and engaging. Plus it’s always good to try something new!
9. Move With Your Pet
We love our Move 2 Suppawters. Play fetch, go for a run, or try doga (yes, dog yoga!). Pets make everything more enjoyable, and they’ll love the extra attention.
10. Plan a Weekend Activity
Now that it’s warmer out, use your weekends as a chance to mix in some longer sessions. Whether it’s paddleboarding, trying a hike, or heading to a local park for an outdoor circuit, every step makes a difference. You can even get friends involved to make it social!
