Welcome!

We are very pleased to include Newtown Youth and Family Services as a beneficiary of the 6th Annual Run 4 Hunger and Health.  Newtown Youth and Family Services has been providing essential critical programs and services to residents of Newtown and surrounding areas for more than 30 years.  We feel strongly that feeding the body and a healthy mind and soul are all prerequisite to a healthy community.  On behalf of the Run4Hunger staff, we look forward to a long relationship with both FAITH Food Pantry and Newtown Youth and Family Services and a successful event.

The cost of the main event is $30 + 3 Canned Goods.

The cost of the kids event is $5 + 3 Canned Goods.

2024 Funds Presentation to FAITH Food Pantry and NYFS


The Newtown Knights were able to officially present checks to the FAITH Food Pantry and Newtown Youth & Family Services (NYFS) with all of the funds raised from the Run4Hunger-Newtown 5k race. We were also able to donate hundreds of canned goods.

Thank you to all those who participated and donated. We would not be able to do what we do without your help and generosity.
