ForeverFamily 5k

ForeverFamily, a nonprofit run by a local Summerhill resident, would like to invite you to participate in their annual 5K4KIDS race/walk. The event will take place in Grant Park on September 25 at 8:45 am. Go to this link to register and get more information.

Foreverfamily helps children who have an incarcerated parent. Primarily, they take kids every month to visit their parents at prisons across GA (2-3 hours outside of Atlanta). The kids they serve are low-income, and many would not be able to see their parents without the service they provide. Right now the kids haven't been able to visit in person for over a year. To bridge the gap, they have been paying for kids to have frequent video visits with their parents, emails, phone calls, and stationary. You may be familiar with the fact that prices for these services inside the prison are very expensive. So this year, they are specifically raising money to continue providing these virtual services to families until we are able to resume in-person visitation. For families who need it, we also provide tablets and internet service.

Once a year, we ask the community to join us in supporting these children and families through our 5K4KIDS race/walk . People can run/walk the 5K4Kids wherever they live. See you there!
