CHARITY INFORMATION
All proceeds from the #FEEDTHEKIDS 5k will be donated to the Dahlhus Fund, a nonprofit fund through the Bluegrass Community Foundation that aims to pay off all of the student lunch debts for Fayette County Public Schools students. LEARN MORE/DONATE

Did you know that 1 in 4 public school students in the Commonwealth experience food insecurity? During the 2024-25 school year, student lunch debt for Fayette County students topped $35,000. Through fundraising efforts, the Dahlhus Fund was able to issue a grand of $13,000 towards that debt at the end of the '25 school year and aims to pay the entire lunch debt at the end of the 2025-26 year no matter what that amount is.

MIRROR TWIN BREWING AFTER PARTY/CELEBRATION
The after race after party will be at Mirror Twin Brewing's Annex (730 National Avenue 40502) starting at 11am. Anyone who brings their race bib to the after party will get a free beer. Brunch is also available for purchase from Rolling Oven Pizza.
