Proceeds from the Warminster Food Bank Donation Dash 5K Run & Walk will benefit the Warminster Food Bank, which serves over 650 families per month in Bucks and Montgomery Counties. 95 percent of donations go towards providing to food to families in the community. Despite it being a rainy day, last year’s race had 125 participants and it raised $11,000. “We were looking for an event that would help raise funds to support our mission,” said Mike Cerino, Warminster Food Bank Director. “We decided on a 5K run and walk, since it would be a fun event for runners and walkers of all ages and abilities. Last year’s run and walk was a resounding success, even in the rain, and we’re hoping for a bigger turnout this year”
