St. John's 5K Run-Walk

Hello everyone!

Join us this year for St. John's 17th annual 5K Run/Walk!

For 27 years, the church of St. John the Evangelist has been welcoming Londoners experiencing hunger to dinner every Saturday night without a break. In 2024, a Tuesday lunch and an outdoor pantry were added to address the ever increasing food security needs in London.

This is the primary, but not the only way that our church community reaches out to those in need. The funds raised from our event will go directly to feeding our guests. With increased cost of food and supplies, the success of this event has never been more important to the financial security of the Meal Program.

SPONSORSHIP

This is an excellent opportunity for local businesses to support our event and an extremely worthwhile cause.  If you or your company would like to make a financial donation there are three levels of support.

Bronze   $1,000

Silver     $2,500

Gold       $5,000

We thank you for your generosity and you will receive acknowledgement on our Facebook page as well in all correspondence and publicity.

REGISTRATION

Registration can be done online. Participants have the opportunity to create their own page, story and add an image if desired. The in-person event will take place on Sunday October 20 at the church of St. John the Evangelist at 2:30 p.m. with event check-in starting at 1:30 p.m. For those wishing to walk the 5k on their own, this is still an option.
