Your Help Matters (please read)

* First off, please take the time to read the letter attached in this post *

WE WILL BE COLLECTING NON-PERISHABLE FOOD ITEMS WEEKLY FOR THE LOCAL FOOD BANKS AND HOMELESS SHELTERS.

For those of you who have been a part of the D5K for a long time, you are familiar with this collection. For those of you who are newer to our family, this is something we used to do on are regular ongoing basis. I take responsibility for not talking about it as much during the summer months, and having it kind of fizzle away for the most part.

This letter that i received serves as a wake up call to the positive impact and reach that our giving has had on other peoples lives. Beyond the running, beyond the laughs, and beyond the beers, we are a group who support and care about the community that hosts our run every week.

With the Winter months close at hand, there are a lot of people who could use a little extra help, and a little extra hope. So I ask you to keep that in mind next time you are at the grocery store, or fishing through your cabinets looking for the peanut butter, take a look around and see what you can bring with you to help someone else. Trust me, it goes a long way.

The D5K is a free run, open to all who want to participate, all we ask is that you help us help others. The returns are immeasurable.

Thank you, Adam.
