SUMMARY:Miles for Meals on Wheels Fun Run
DESCRIPTION:We are excited to announce our Annual Miles for Meals Fun Run\, taking place on Saturday\, June 20th. Registration begins at 9:00 a.m.\, and the run starts at 10:00 a.m.\nThis special event is more than just a fun morning of walking and running it is a powerful way for our community to come together in support of the Meals on Wheels program. Every mile completed helps ensure that seniors in our community receive nutritious meals and the caring connections that mean so much. \nThis year\, our goal is to raise $100\,000 to help sustain and expand our Meals on Wheels services. With rising food and delivery costs\, community support is more important than ever. The funds raised will go directly toward providing meals to seniors who depend on this vital program to remain independent and healthy in their own homes.\nWe invite you to participate\, sponsor a runner\, create a personal fundraiser\, or make a direct contribution. Every donation large or small makes a meaningful difference.\nTogether\, we can ensure that no senior goes without a warm meal and a friendly visit.
