Belmont High School XC/T&F Run Against Hunger

We’re excited to announce that BHS XC/T&F will be participating in Run Against Hunger’s first-ever Run-A-Thon from home from April 20-26. Run Against Hunger’s goal is to combat food insecurity caused by school closures of the COVID-19 crisis through running. All funds will go directly to No Kid Hungry, a nonprofit organization helping schools and community groups feed kids while schools are closed.

With our season currently on pause, we are looking for a positive outlet and motivation to stay active and healthy. Run Against Hunger allows us to motivate each other while working towards the common goal of giving back to our community. We would greatly appreciate your support in pledging to donate per mile or making one flat donation.

For example, if you pledge $0.25 and we run 100 miles as a team during the Run-A-Thon, you’ll donate $25 to No Kid Hungry, which is equivalent to 250 meals. You can also make a flat donation of any amount instead of pledging.

During this Run-A-Thon, we hope to help decrease the number of meals missed. It is currently projected that students will miss over half a million meals due to school closures caused by COVID-19. With your help, I believe we can run down that number.

Thank you so much for your support and stay healthy!

All running during this Run-A-Thon will follow local, state and federal social distancing guidelines!
