Since 1996 the annual Race Against Hunger has elevated the issue of food insecurity in our local communities and raises funds to support our work and infuse the Philadelphia food access network with resources for neighborhood pantries, soup kitchens, and anti-hunger groups to get nutritious food to our neighbors who need it. The 5K is as resilient as our local anti-hunger movement, having briefly become a “Walk Against Hunger” and going completely virtual as the world confronted the COVID-19 pandemic. 

Now back in-person at the Navy Yard, we invite participants in all formats! You can run, walk, or complete the 5K virtually. For those who are serious about their metrics, our course is USATF certified. Join us for this fun, safe, family-friendly way for people of all ages to help our neighbors in need!
