The direct beneficiaries of the Race4Rehma are:
· Second Helpings rescues perishable food and converts it into meals that are distributed to several social services organizations in Indianapolis. OBAT Helpers’ goal is to provide more than 2,000 meals through Second Helpings this year.
· Sense Charter School is dedicated to educating children, majority of who are eligible for free meals. OBAT Helpers’ aims to increase its support to SENSE in the year 2012.
To help even more Hoosiers this year, we need your help! Invite your family, activate your friends, and tell your circle of influence where you’ll be on September 29th!
