Join MSU Billings staff, faculty, and students as we participate in the Run! Turkey Run! race on Thanksgiving Day. The Run! Turkey Run! 5K and Street Mile were created to help put an end to hunger in our community. More information on the race can be found at https://www.facebook.com/Run-Turkey-Run-194496093925039/ or http://runturkeyrun.org/.
The MSU Billings Yellowjacket Emergency Pantry (YEP) has been selected as a recipient of the Run! Turkey Run! 5k race that is held annually on Thanksgiving Day, this year is the 7th year. We are one of 4 recipients that the committee selected to receive the proceeds. The other recipients are Family Service, Meals on Wheels, and the Backpack Meals Program. This is a great opportunity for MSU Billings and the YEP to be promoted in the community. This will also allow us to have additional funding to better serve the students that visit the pantry.
