Running For a Cause: Community Center of St. Bernard Takes on the Crescent City Classic to Fight Hunger!

The Community Center of St. Bernard is thrilled to announce its participation as a Charity Partner in the 2025 Crescent City Classic for the sixth year in a row! As the only nonprofit charity partner representing St. Bernard Parish, we are honored to take part in this iconic event to raise funds and awareness in the fight against food insecurity in our beloved parish. The event will take place on Saturday, April 19, 2025. The race kicks off at Champion Square and finishes at the beautiful Fairgrounds in City Park.

Our goal this year is to raise $15,000, with every dollar going directly toward feeding families in need within our community. The Crescent City Classic, known for its vibrant mix of serious runners, costumed participants, and cocktail-carrying walkers draws in over 20,000 participants from around the world. We invite our supporters to join the fun—run, walk, or cheer us on—as we race to make a difference! We want to thank our Charity Partner Sponsors for helping make this event possible, Chalmette Refining, Mrs. Rita & Floyd Gue, and ABC Title of Chalmette.
