THE NEED WE’RE RUNNING TOWARD-
You can’t be healthy if you’re hungry.

This year, the Cahaba 5K is raising money, food, and awareness to support our food pantries and nutrition programs across both rural and urban communities—because access to food is essential to health.

FOOD IS GOOD MEDICINE-
Food insecurity isn’t abstract. It shows up in exam rooms every single day:

-Parents skipping meals so their kids can eat
-Children not getting enough nutrition to grow and learn
-Patients struggling to manage chronic illness without reliable access to food
-Families forced to choose between groceries and medication
-That’s why Cahaba has made food access part of healthcare itself.
