What is Outrun Hunger?
In 2011, we launched our 5K charity race to raise money to feed 100 lakes region families during the holiday season. Today, Outrun Hunger is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt, charitable organization and has raised a total of $272,035, feeding 11,200 families right here in our community. Best of all, 100% of the donations/registrations are gifted to our partnering food pantries, Hospitality House Food Pantry of Commerce and Open Door Outreach Center of Waterford. Our goal every year is to be a catalyst for “outrunning hunger” in the Lakes Region of Southeast Michigan.

This years race - the 15th annual Outrun Hunger - takes place Saturday, November 8 at 10:00am. This year, our goal is to raise $35,000 to feed 700 families!
