OUR MISSION

IT IS ABOUT THE CHILDREN ...

Run 5 Feed 5 is a 501c3 organization and relies heavily on our volunteers to plan, organize and hold events throughout the year to be able to fund programs that provide food boxes to food poor children in Randolph County.  Two of our bigger events include a 5K walk/run in the Spring and in December we partner with SerCo of Archdale to hold the "Be the Light 5K" that coincides with the lighting of the the Christmas tree at Creekside Park.   


Our mission started in 2014 with the hope of raising money and awareness for the childhood hunger problem in our communities.  Right now, in North Carolina, 1 out of every 4 children go hungry.  Most of these children only get the nutrition they need when they are at school.  Because of that, we currently offer grants for schools to buy lunch or snacks for children who would otherwise go without. 

Help Deliver Christmas Food Boxes to Children in Need🎄

 

This Christmas season, we’re delivering food boxes to more than 500 children across our community—ensuring they have meals during their school break.


Many of the children we serve go without regular meals when school is out. You can make a real difference by helping us deliver these boxes of food and hope this Christmas.


How It Works:

  1. When: Monday, December 22, between 4:00 PM and 6:00 PM
  2. Where: Run5 Feed5 Pantry — 11234 N Main St, Suite 301, Archdale (Dug Out Shopping Center)
  3. What to Do:
    • Arrive during pickup hours.
    • We’ll give you the addresses of families in need (we try to keep deliveries close to your area in Randolph County).
    • Deliver the food boxes to each home—just leave them at the door.

That’s it! In just a short time, you’ll bring joy and nourishment to children who need it most this holiday season.


👉 Sign up today: Complete the Volunteer Form, and we’ll be in touch with all the details.

OUR FOOD DELIVERY PROGRAMS

 

PACK THE PANTRY


Every school in our community has a pantry to help ensure that no child goes hungry. These pantries provide food for students who may come to school without breakfast or lunch, can’t afford a meal, or need extra food to take home for the weekend.

Pack the Pantry is our program dedicated to keeping those shelves full. Each month, our volunteers pick up boxes of food and deliver them to 42 local schools across Randolph County—helping make sure every child has access to the nourishment they need to learn and thrive.


SUMMER & CHRISTMAS FEEDING


When school is out, many children lose access to regular meals. To bridge that gap, our Summer & Christmas Feeding Program delivers food boxes directly to the homes of more than 500 food-insecure children in our community.

Every two weeks during school breaks, volunteers pick up boxes from the pantry containing two weeks’ worth of food and deliver them to families who might otherwise go without. Together, we help ensure that children continue to have nutritious meals even when school cafeterias are closed.


BACKPACK PALS


We proudly support the Backpack Pals program, organized by COAT (Community Outreach of Archdale-Trinity). Through this partnership, bags of food are sent home every Friday with local children in need—providing them with essential meals to get through the weekend.
