Proceeds benefit No Kid Hungry
We are excited to announce that the Manhattan College Cross Country Team 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.
As Jaspers, we pride ourselves on being members of a close-knit community of supportive individuals who never back down during times of hardship. This fundraiser provides us with an opportunity to provide assistance to those who are less fortunate than us during this difficult time. 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 during the Run-A-Thon, you’ll donate $25 to No Kid Hungry, which is equivalent to 250 meals.
IMPORTANT NOTE: All pledged donations are for each mile we run as a group. It is not a pledge for the miles that just one individual logs.
During this Run-A-Thon, I 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!
