Organiser's description
Change Today, Change Tomorrow http://change-today.org presents our 2nd Annual 5k. This pivotal action serves as a powerful illustration of the existing food and transportation inequalities within our neighborhoods, underlining the drastic need for change. As our community of 60,000 shares just two grocery stores in stark contrast to the more affluent east side's fifteen stores, we walk in unity and resilience, making our message clear: Access to fresh food and transportation is not a privilege; it is a right. By participating in our event, you join us in a crucial step towards eradicating food apartheid and creating a more equitable community. Stand with us as we take bold steps towards change today, for a better tomorrow.
