ORGANIZATION: Places for People

  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
  • 7 people are interested

Places for People will be hosting our first Health Hustle 5k Run/Walk event to promote health and wellness among our workforce. As helpers, we often do not take enough time to care for our own recovery and well-being; our focus is on those we serve, often leaving us with little energy to manage a healthy lifestyle for ourselves.

With this fun event, we want to encourage our staff to come out and get moving. As professionals at a health care organization, it is important that we lead by example and take some steps to improve our own wellness. Race fees and sponsorships will first pay for the cost of this fantastic event; any additional proceeds will be donated to Places for People, for the benefit of those we serve.

In order to provide the best event possible, we need 10-12 volunteers! Volunteers are needed to

  • Help along the race course
  • Cover water stations and snack stations
  • Supervise kid-fun zones
  • Help with set-up and clean-up of event

Have a group who would be a good fit for this opportunity? Call Training and Volunteer Manager Jen May at 314-535-5600 ext 211 for more details!
