From the Organizer
Join us on Sunday, November 22 for the Mary's Meals Run for Hope 5K Run/Walk at the beautiful Highbanks Metro Park in Lewis Center, Ohio! The race kicks off at 12:30PM but there will be plenty of fun activities before, during, and after the 5K.
Mary’s Meals provides life-changing school meals to children living in some of the world’s poorest communities. The promise of a good meal brings hungry children into the classroom, where they can gain an education and better opportunities for the future.
It costs just $25.20 to provide a child with meals in a place of education for an entire school year. Together, we can reach the next hungry child.
