As the holiday season approaches, we are reminded of all that we should be thankful for.To put those sentiments into action, members of Kappa Alpha Psi will join together at Sac State on November 22nd to participate in the Sacramento Food Bank's 14th Annual Run to Feed the Hungry, one of many national "turkey trot" fundraisers held on Thanksgiving morning. Based in the Oak Park neighborhood, the Sacramento Food Bank provides a variety of services for people in need.
Don't be fooled by the term "run" (or even "trot"). With a few exceptions, most of the roughly 15,000 participants treat the event as an opportunity to take a leisurely walk through the beautiful neighborhood of East Sacramento.
Kappas, friends, and family are encouraged to join us as we make room for turkey & stuffing by starting the day off with a 5K (3.1 mile) walk. Registration is just $30 and includes a souvenir t-shirt (ignore the more expensive "team member" options; they are for corporate team packages).
Too busy basting the bird to get out of the house that morning? Not a problem. Folks can participate in several other ways, including:
- register as a "virtual runner" (includes a souvenir t-shirt), or
- make a tax-deductible donation on behalf of the Kappa team (any contribution helps; all proceeds benefit Sacramento Food Bank Services)
