Looking for something productive to do tomorrow morning? Well, Hains Point in Washington, D.C is hosting a "Soup Run." After running a 5K, a warm bowl of soup awaits you at the finish line!

All proceeds go towards a scholarship fund for D.C students! This is a great way to volunteer and pay it forward, so let's start off the new year on a positive note shall we? If you have any questions, please feel free to message us on Facebook or at [email protected].
