Form-A-Feed 5K

On September 12, 2023, Form-A-Feed planned and hosted an employee 5K Run/Walk in Stewart, MN to support two local cancer organizations, Renville County Walk in the Park and the Hutchinson Health Cancer Center.

Form-A-Feed donated $100 to the cause for each runner or walker that completed the 5k.  39 Form-A-Feed employees crossed the 5K finish line, and several more employees volunteered to help at the event.

Including individual donations from Form-A-Feed employees, Form-A-Feed donated $2,450 to both the Renville County Walk in the Park and the Hutchinson Health Cancer Center, totaling $4,900 to support cancer.

Alison Rickeman, Form-A-Feed marketing coordinator, organized the 5K event along with the help of her Form-A-Feed teammates.  “Cancer has affected the lives of several members of our Form-A-Feed family and their families. We wanted to create an event where we could give back to our community together and support our fellow Form-A-Feed employees and their family members who have been battling cancer.”

The Renville County Walk in the Park is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing support for cancer survivors including delivering blessing bags, reimbursing medical expenses, and donating to cancer research at the University of Minnesota.

The Hutchinson Health Cancer Center in Hutchinson, MN offers expert medical oncology and the latest, science-backed treatments for cancer patients, offering comprehensive cancer care that is close to home.
