2014 Race to
Deliver Benefiting God's Love We Deliver
|
|
On Sunday,
November 23rd, God’s Love We Deliver held its 21st Annual
Race to Deliver in Central Park. The Park was bursting with
over 5,300 runners, and 200 children joined in the Kids’
Races.
The festive pre-Thanksgiving mood lit the morning. |
|
Celebrating its 21st year, the Race
to Deliver is
one of God's Love We Deliver's largest annual fundraisers.
It is a 4 mile run/walk in Central Park, followed by
multiple-distance Kids’ Races. The Race to Deliver
symbolizes the daily race to ensure that no one faces the
dual crises of hunger and illness. The 21st Annual Race to
Deliver was a huge success for God’s Love We Deliver. It was
a beautiful morning in Central Park as everyone raced for a
wonderful cause. |
|
This year, money
raised at the Race will fund 40,000 meals and nutrition
education and counseling for our clients living with severe
illness. A $10 donation to
www.racetodeliver.org
funds one nutritious meal. |
|
Many wonderful
individuals and organizations supported this year’s Race to
Deliver. Noah
Neiman, Celebrity Fitness Personality, Nike sponsored
trainer, and Master Trainer For Barry’s Boot Camp led
invigorating warm-ups for the participants. Fox 5 anchor Ben
Simmoneau welcomed Race participants and congratulated the
winners at the awards ceremony. God’s Love would also like
to thank New York Road Runners and event sponsors M.A.C
AIDS FUND, Global Brands Group, Fox 5, Gramercy Tavern and
Simon & Schuster. |
|
At the Kids’ Races, runners ages 2 to 12,
dashed in their own races, by age. At the end of each Race,
the children involved in the Kids’ Races received their own
awards. God’s Love Leadership Council members Katy and Greg
Williamson and God’s Love Board members Scott Bruckner and
Sylvia Vogelman cheered on and congratulated the runners of
the Kids’ Races. |
|
God’s Love We
Deliver is continuing to raise necessary funds from the Race
to Deliver. Donations can be made at www.racetodeliver.org
and the Race to Deliver website will be available
until December 21, 2014. |
