From the Organizer
Sign up NOW for the 2026 Shepherd's Run! SATURDAY, OCTOBER 3rd. This fundraiser supports our Norris Food Backpack Program & Food Pantry. Every week, many Norris students come home with a backpack filled with food to sustain their families. Would your business or employer be willing to sponsor this event? Cost for sponsorship is $100 which will put your business name on our t-shirts, Voice ads, and event banner.
Our goal is to get one hundred $100 sponsorships which will cover the expenses for the backpack program for the entire year!
Please email Lisa Loseke if you would like to be a sponsor: tlloseke@msn.com
