About the Event

Visalia Emergency Aid's (VEA) Race Against Hunger is on the most thankful day of the year, and we are so thankful that YOU are joining us!

We are recognized as the largest timed Thanksgiving 5K Run in the Central Valley, with over 6,000 participants! However, we are more than a race - we are building community! As a participant, you'll not only join thousands of runners and walkers from the Central Valley, but you'll also be able to say that you are helping the Visalia Emergency Aid Council ensure that no child goes to bed hungry in Tulare County. All funds raised go straight to our food pantry programs, ensuring that local households in need are connected with the food resources they require. Step by step, this race is making a tangible difference in our community! That's how we turn Miles 2 Meals!
