The driving force behind the Hunger Network's fundraiser Saturday is Mary Levtzow. Most who know her call her Mary Cares Much, Mary uses a portion of her garage to store food donations.
WESTLAKE, Ohio — On Saturday, hundreds of participants and volunteers will flood the Cleveland MetroParks Zoo for the 35th Annual Walk for Hunger & 5K Run. It’s a team effort to make this all happen. It’s the biggest fundraiser of the year for the Hunger Network. But the driving force behind this mission is Mary Levtzow. Though for most who know her, she goes by Mary Cares Much.
“Chico and I come out here and we arrange the food in the right order for the right centers and get everything organized,” she told News 5 Anchor Courtney Gousman. “We have pick-ups all month and every week.” “She is our top sponsor,” O’Donnell said. “I know she takes a lot of pride in that. We are so grateful to have her on our side.” In addition to all the donations she collects from her community, Mary also manages to raise $15,000 for the event.
“Because Jesus died for us. That’s the whole key. Jesus is the key,” she said. “There’s so much need, you’ll never know. There’s just so much. That’s all we see all the time is people in need, therefore you have to meet the need.”
