My friend Chris, who was the first friend I made when I joined NJYP waaaaay back in 2005, is helping to organize the 3rd Annual Race For Hope 5K which is taking place this Saturday, November 15.

Race for Hope supports HOPE Ministries, The Community FoodBank of NJ, and Family Promise of Passaic County.  These charities partner throughout the year to provide food, clothing, shelter, and other essential services for homeless families.  HOPE Ministries also has outreach programs for the homeless and victims of human-trafficking.

If you are interested you can get more information at www.HopeRace.org or find "Race For Hope 5K" on Facebook.
