The Race Beneficiary

Saint Vincent DePaul Society is a non-profit organization that plays a vital role in our community by providing shelter, food, counseling and referral services with dignity for people in need.  They operate a 25 bed homeless shelter, a 10 family Women with Children Transitional Center and a 13 unit transitional living center for single men.

 

Last years 6th annual Shamrock Run & Walk was a huge success which was evidenced by the committee presenting a check for $14,500 to the shelter and hosting over 1152 athletes.  Not only was it a great fundraising event for the shelter it helped raise awareness within the community of the good work being done for those less fortunate.  Since the race inception in 2003 the event has raised over $70,000 for the shelter.

An Irish Blessing

May you be poor in misfortune,
rich in blessings,
slow to make enemies,
quick to make friends,
but rich or poor,
quick or slow,
may you know nothing but happiness
from this day forward.
