Beneficiary

Net proceeds will be donated to the Frederick chapter of Blessings in a Backpack.  The local chapter works in partnership with the national Blessings in a Backpack organization to provide weekend food to children who depend on the federal Free And Reduce-Price Meal program as their primary source of nutrition. The food distribution effort from Blessings In A Backpack has been especially critical during the pandemic as many households struggle with rising food prices. The Frederick Steeplechasers have donated over $179,000 in net proceeds from the race since 2016!
