The Midnight Run
- Preparing a delivery for the Midnight Run.
No, it's not a marathon!
The Midnight Run is part of a national program designed to provide food, clothing, and essentials to the homeless in urban environments.
Centenary College students maintain an active program where one night every month essentials are brought into New York City to aid the homeless and the poor.
During the month prior to each Midnight Run, volunteers are needed to fund-raise, and collect and sort items. Meal preparation, packing, and distributing are needed on the night of the run.
