About the St. Jerome Jog to Feed the Hungry
The race runs through Oconomowoc and is organized by St. Jerome Parish and School, with the proceeds going to the parish food pantry and outreach work that serves people facing hunger and homelessness. There are options for runners, walkers, and ruckers, plus a separate kids run. Race day donations of canned or packaged food are encouraged to help keep the pantry stocked.
The event is rooted in the parish itself, so the start area has a congregation feel, with families, volunteers, and neighbors mixed in among the runners. The purpose behind the morning is visible throughout, which gives the whole thing a grounded, purposeful atmosphere that is hard to manufacture.
