100-Mile Solo Run Across Georgia Benefits Hi-Hope Service Center

Nick Reynolds, Volunteer Coordinator for Hi-Hope Service Center, ran 100 consecutive miles starting on October 27th and finishing on the 28th. The run began on the Georgia-Alabama border, and ended at the Silver Comet Trail and finished at Hi- Hope’s main facility just north of Lawrenceville.

As Volunteer Coordinator, Reynolds asks potential volunteers about their strengths and interests and tries to develop activities based on that information. One day, Reynolds asked himself the same question, how could he help Hi-Hope with his strengths and interests? As a dedicated long distance runner with a passion for pushing boundaries, the answer was obvious and “Hi-Hope Hundred” was born. 100% of money raised goes to match a Challenge Grant from the Community Foundation of Northeast Georgia to support much needed renovations to Hi-Hope’s Oak Manor group home.

Hi-Hope is a 56-year-old 501©(3) non profit organization that supports adults with developmental disabilities in Gwinnett County. For more information on Hi-Hope Service Center, visit hihopecenter.org.
