The Kids Against Hunger – Fill Their Plate Run was a great success! We were so encouraged with the participation of 560 runners and walkers in the 10K and 5K events, with another 89 kids running in the ¼ mile and ½ mile events! When we planned this, we figured it would take a couple years to get it up and going where it would fund our annual 100,000 Meals Pack-a-Thon in July. Little did we know that through everyone’s participation and the generous donations of our sponsors, we would raise enough to purchase and pack 125,000 meals! It was an overwhelming success!
We’ve Raised the Funds, Now Pack the Meals!
Phase two of our Fill Their Plate Run is the Fill Their Plate 100,000 Meals Pack-a-Thon on Saturday, July 31st. (Now officially 125,000!) If you can make it, please sign up online and bring your friends, family, or anyone that would like to join us! It is a great time as we have 9 packing lines set up at one time, with some great music and a great cause. You can go directly to the Pack-a-Thon page here.
Thanks again to all who participated in the Kids Against Hunger Run! We’d love to see everyone again next year – and don’t forget to bring your family, friends, neighbors, coworkers, etc., etc.!
