Fighting Hunger Feeding Hope 5K - Summerville, GA
Fighting Hunger Feeding Hope is a community fundraising run in Summerville, Georgia, held on Saturday, March 14, 2026. The event raises funds to support the Community Resource Center of Chattooga County. The organizer states a mission to acquire and distribute resources through the foodbank to help people in financial need and to reflect the words, "For I was hungry and you fed me, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me in."
The event offers multiple participation options:
- 5K
- 1 Mile Fun Run
- Ghost Runner (support only; no t-shirt)
The 5K is described as a scenic and fast course that travels through a neighborhood of Summerville.

Washington before returning to the center. The 1 mile event is an out-and-back on Highland Ave and E. Washington and also starts and finishes at the Community Resource Center.
