| Thanksgiving Day will soon be here, a time to celebrate, count our blessings with friends and family, and run the Dana Point Turkey Trot 5K or 10K. But let us not forget about the 615,000+ individuals in Orange County that may face an empty plate this Thanksgiving holiday.
Who are the hungry in Orange County?
The hungry are often hard-working adults, children and seniors who simply cannot make ends meet and are forced to go without food for several meals, or even days. With sky-high rents, rising medical costs and unemployment, too many people have to make life-threatening choices.
How can you get involved?
Open your heart this holiday by fundraising for the Second Harvest Food Bank of Orange County. Once you register to run the 2010 Dana Point Turkey Trot, a fundraising page is created for YOU! Personalize this page, set your fundraising goal, and share your page with friends, family, & colleagues who share your passion for helping our community.
Fundraising so others can eat this holiday is easy. If you would like fundraising tips, ideas, or webpage support we are here to help you. Email give@feedoc.org with any concerns or questions regarding your fundraising page, team, or campaign.
REMEMBER for every $1 fundraised, the Second Harvest Food Bank of Orange County is able to provide 3 meals to the hungry in our community. |
