The Cousins that Care 5K Run/Walk had a total of forty participants and raised about $4,500 on Saturday, August 23rd at The Ole Barn in Inlet, according to the the group’s founder, Melanie Levi.
“Attendance was less than last year, but the weather definitely didn’t help,” Levi said.
The cousins raise funds to be donated to a variety of charities, according to Levi.
“We raise money to help those in need—people that are going through a hard time, or who are ill,” she said.
“Despite the weather, the kids who participated had an enjoyable time,” Melanie said.
The Cousins That Care comprises Melanie Levi, Shelby Townsend, Shawn Hansen, Laura Levi, Britney Levi, Cory Hansen, and Thomas Levi.
