The in-person event is Thanksgiving Day, Thursday, November 23, 2023, in west Akron (near/through Glendale Cemetery), and the virtual run or walk is anytime in November. Register via www.gennesaret.net. Cleveland Clinic Akron General is the presenting sponsor. This is Gennesaret’s only fundraiser and the need to help the poor is urgent.
