Outrun Hunger

Donation Goal: $35,000

RAISE $35,000 FEED 700

In 2011, we launched our 5K charity race to raise money to feed 100 lakes region families during the holiday season. Today, Outrun Hunger is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt, charitable organization and has raised a total of $272,035, feeding 11,200 families right here in our community. Best of all, 100% of the donations/registrations are gifted to our partnering food pantries, Hospitality House Food Pantry of Commerce and Open Door Outreach Center of Waterford. Our goal every year is to be a catalyst for “outrunning hunger” in the Lakes Region of Southeast Michigan. 

Exciting results, but our job isn't done. According to our partnering organizations, they served 2,142 families and 4,037 individuals (1,317 were children under 17) distributing 259,967 pounds of food in November and December 2024. This year, our goal is to raise $35,000 to feed 700 families. In addition, the cost to feed a family of four increases every year. The “demand” often overwhelms the supply.

100% of the donations/registrations are gifted to our partnering food pantries, Hospitality House Food Pantry of Commerce and Open Door Outreach Center of Waterford. Our goal every year is to be a catalyst for “outrunning hunger” in the Lakes Region of Southeast Michigan.  Would you be willing to join us in making that happen in 2025?
