Our First Ever 5K Brings Community Together for Worthy Cause

Published Monday, October 16, 2023

Our first-ever 5K united the community for a worthy cause, fighting hunger in Buffalo! The JCC 5K/Family Walk & Run and Community Celebration on Sunday, October 15, had over 300 participants run or walk the course along Linwood Ave in Buffalo. The weather held off, and our top finisher had a time of 17:25! Congrats to all!

Representatives from Buffalo City Mission, Friends of the Night People, and FeedMore WNY came out to see the community effort that means so much to their organizations.

From kids to adults, we had winners in all age groups, schmoozed after the 5K, and DJ Milk spun some tunes for our fantastic community.

Thanks to our partners, sponsors, volunteers, and JCC staff who helped make this event special! See you next year!
