Consider being a sponsor
Our Sponsors are critical to the success of this event. The funds they provide help to pay the out-of-pocket costs of the event, allowing us to use all ticket proceeds to purchase food for our pantries and meal sites.
A key element in fulfilling this vision of a healthier region is supplying fresh fruits, vegetables, and lean protein from local farmers purchased through our Farm2Neighbor fund, supplemented by donated and rescued food.
