This year we are pleased to announce that our March for Meals race is now a Peachtree Road Race Qualifier AND we have added a new component, a 12K! We recognize the support this race generates and its reach in the community is wide. As a result, we wanted to freshen it up this year and extend to our racers the ability to participate in a race that would count toward the Peachtree Road Race as well as adding the 12K race. Why a 12K you ask? Well, we think we are clever and the 5K/12K symbolizes ACCA’s commitment to serving the community 5 days a week, 12 months a year. It sets it apart from other races a little and is fun.
Did you know that almost 9 million older adults in the United States are at risk for hunger, and Georgia is 8th in state rankings for older adult risk of hunger? At ACCA we are working hard to fix that in our community. Programs like Meals on Wheels are an integral piece of community living for so many we serve. You can help us ensure no senior goes hungry in our community with your support of our March for Meals 5K/12K.
