Organiser's description
Join us on Saturday, August 17th at 9:00am at The Orange Innovation Center for a Fun Run/ Walk 5K to support Valuing Our Children.
Valuing Our Children (VOC) was established in 1993 by the North Quabbin Community Coalition (NQCC) through a multi-year grant provided by the John Boynton Fund. The organization was established for the purpose of addressing the needs of children in the area by providing primary prevention of child abuse through family support, parenting education, and community development. The mission of VOC is to strengthen families by responding to the expressed needs of parents, addressing barriers to individual family involvement (i.e. childcare, transportation), and building on existing strengths in families and in the community.
Grab your friends, coworkers, family members or neighbors and lace up your sneakers to help support this amazing organization! Drop ins are welcome- $15.
