The charity flagship running event “HUNGER RUN” organized by social enterprise FOODSPORT, is returning after a two-year pandemic hiatus, bringing back the joy and excitement of a PHYSCIAL running event to the Hong Kong community, raising public awareness to fight poverty and hunger on “The World Food Day”.
In celebration of FOODSPORT’s 10th Anniversary, a new category “3km Fun Roller (Individual)”, new venue, new route and a new “Cha Kee” theme (Hong Kong Traditional Style Cafe) will be added to the event, creating a meaningful, fun and foodie filled running event for all walks of live, encouraging runners to run more, eat more and to donate more to support our charity partner “J Life Foundation” Food Assistance Program, serving those families in need living in Sham Shui Po.
Beside the calorie donation, the proceeds of the event, after deduction of the event operating costs and food donations, will be donated to the “FOODSPORT FOUNDATION”, funding its "Food Assistance” and “Community Sport Development" programs to sustain and expand our community calorie drive programs in Hong Kong.
