CCC Hunger Walk & 5K Run...

• 5k Run:- Run 3.1 Miles

The 2017 CCC Annual Hunger Walk / 5K Run / Kids Fun Run is designed as a family day event. The proceeds of the event help to provide support for CCC's Urban Farming Project teaching our youth organic farming techniques, cooking & nutrition education. It also supports CCC's Senior Caregiving Program which provides 262 frail & elderly shut-ins with home delivered meals, fresh weekly produce, & social activities, as well as our food pantry.

The 5K Run is also designed to support our economic development programs for job training and a culinary business development center. The event encourages vendors participation. It also enlists the local restaurants & business to participate by offering discount deals for participants encouraging them to patronize their establishments.

We expect to have 300 runners this year. for more information you can visit our website at www.cccgbb.org
