Chick‑fil‑A presents 5K benefactor check to Do Good Farm; race set for April 10 next year
Summary
Chick‑fil‑A representative Beth Ott presented proceeds from the 14th annual Chick‑fil‑A 5K to local nonprofit Do Good Farm ($1,320 from race plus $125.40 from a community fundraiser) and announced the 15th annual race is scheduled for April 10, 2027 with application guidance for local nonprofits.
OCOEE, Fla. — Chick‑fil‑A representatives presented a benefactor check to Do Good Farm during the June 2 commission meeting and announced next year's race date.
Beth Ott said the 14th annual Chick‑fil‑A 5K gave back to a local nonprofit and that the benefactor this year is Do Good Farm. "We just are here tonight to distribute our benefactor, their check from the 5K," Ott said. She later told commissioners the race raised $1,320 from entries and an additional $125.40 from a community fundraiser for the benefactor.
Ott invited the child's representative, Cameron, to say a few words about the organization's mission. She also announced the 15th annual Chick‑fil‑A 5K and kids fun run will be April 10 and encouraged local nonprofits within listed ZIP codes to apply for benefactor consideration.
Why it matters: The city frequently partners with community races and local businesses to raise funds for nonprofits; Chick‑fil‑A and Parks & Leisure Services staff thanked volunteers and public-safety partners for supporting the event.
What happens next: Chick‑fil‑A and Parks & Leisure Services will post details and application instructions for next year's race and will invite city leaders to the next check presentation and the April 10 event.
