Help me reach my goal!

On October 18, I’ll be taking on the marathon — 42.2 kilometres — and I’d like to make every kilometre count for something more.

 

My goal is to raise $4,220 for Second Harvest — $100 for every kilometre I run.

As we head into the holiday season, it feels like an especially meaningful time to increase our efforts to support families and communities in need. Second Harvest does remarkable work rescuing good food and getting it to people who can use it most.

 

Working in the food industry has given me an even greater appreciation for the value of food — and for the responsibility we all share to make sure as little of it as possible goes to waste.

 

If you’d like to support my run, any contribution — big or small — would mean a lot to me and will help Second Harvest support Canadians who need it.

 

42.2 km. $4,220. Let’s make every kilometre count.

 

Thank you for your support!


Description

Second Harvest is Canada’s largest food rescue organization and is a global thought leader on perishable

food redistribution. We work with thousands of food businesses from across the supply chain to redirect
unsold surplus food to non-profit organizations that feed communities in every province and territory.

By keeping perfectly edible food from ending up in landfill and redirecting it to the charitable sector, our
work prevents harmful greenhouse gases from entering the atmosphere and improves access to nutrition
for the millions of people in Canada experiencing food insecurity.

With every $1 donated, Second Harvest is able to provide five meals worth of rescued food to our non-profit network.
