Miles for Meals 5k

DESCRIPTION

Building a hunger-free and healthy San Diego

Did you know nearly 400,000 children, families and seniors struggle with hunger in San Diego County? Feeding San Diego invites you to join our Miles for Meals 5k Walk/Run. During this fun event, you can help us spread awareness about hunger in San Diego and raise funds to provide meals for local families this holiday season.

Feeding San Diego relies on the generous support of individuals, corporations, foundations and community groups to sustain our critical hunger-relief and nutrition programs throughout the San Diego region. Our highly organized distribution model turns every dollar raised into four meals for the more than 63,000 children, families and seniors we serve every week.

For this 5k, we have set a goal to raise $5,000, which will provide 20,000 meals to families in need. Your support makes an immediate impact on our community.

Lace up your sneakers and get ready to fight hunger!
