My Story…
I have decided to run my first half-marathon on behalf of a local Pittsburgh non-profit, 412 Food Rescue. As someone who could not run a continuous mile at the beginning of October, this is a huge undertaking. I cannot imagine a more fitting way to keep myself motivated throughout what I know will be a grueling winter training season than by fundraising for an organization whose mission I truly believe in. Below is information about the incredible work this organization does in our community.
"We partner with food retailers, volunteer drivers, and nonprofit organizations to connect surplus food with individuals and families who are experiencing food insecurity. Our intuitive app guides thousands of volunteers who we call Food Rescue Heroes, to rescue perfectly good but unsellable food that would otherwise be wasted and redirect it to people who need it.
Our food donor partners range from grocery stores, wholesalers, caterers, and everything in between. Our nonprofit partners include housing authorities, daycare centers, churches, community centers, and more.
Our model of food recovery and redistribution not only enables access to healthy food, but gets food to where people already are – overcoming barriers like transportation and time. 87% of the food we rescue is fresh food; primarily produce, meat, dairy, bread, and more."
Donate to help Brice raise money for 2023 DICK'S Sporting Goods Pittsburgh Marathon Weekend’s fundraising campaign.
