The starting line.
The River City Run/Walk 5k all started with one woman’s idea. 20 years ago, a volunteer told us we needed a social worker on staff. She was right, we really did, but we had no funds to pay another staff member. This volunteer happened to be a social worker and offered to raise her own pay. So she started a 5k and raised her salary!
All these years later, our 5k is running strong and is one of our most successful fundraisers. It just goes to show what can be accomplished with a dream and a lot of hard work. All proceeds support our goal of feeding, housing, and providing medical, dental, vision, and spiritual care for the homeless, marginalized, uninsured, and underinsured people of Central Arkansas. Look at all your donation helps make possible!
