93.9 The Eagle is proud to sponsor this year’s Hope For Heroes 5k in Columbia.
The Hope for Heroes 5K returns to Columbia on June 29th at Cosmopolitan Park, with opening ceremonies at 7:30a, and the races beginning at 7:45a.
Hosted by The Food Bank for Central & Northeast Missouri, Hope for Heroes benefits the VIP Veteran Pack Program. The program provides additional nutrition to food-insecure veterans. VIP Veteran Packs include ready-to-eat entrees, soup, and fruit and vegetables in easy-to-open cans, as well as toiletries such as razors, body wash and deodorant. They distribute VIP Veteran Packs in 13 counties, up from 9 counties last year, with ongoing efforts to further expand the program.
You can sign up and find out more about the race here.
