Can you think of a better way to spend a Saturday morning than exercising with friends, enjoying the beautiful neighborhoods around the Montclair Art Museum and helping the homeless? You can do all three when you pull together a team of co-workers, friends or church buddies and enter the Goodwill 5000 Meter Run on Saturday, Nov. 14.
Our goal is to raise enough funds to provide 25,000 meals for the hungry and homeless this winter. To do so, we’re asking 5K and one-mile Fun Run participants to set a goal of how many meals they can provide at $1.98 each, then raise the funds by forming a team and enlisting sponsors; friends, family, relatives, co-workers and people in your church can all cheer you on and help the hungry at the same time.
Forming a team is easy! Each team needs 5 people including the team captain. Please identify your team name and team captain’s name on your registration form. Each team captain will receive a Captain’s Kit with helpful tips on how your team can be most effective in raising money to provide meals for the homeless.
