Event Description

Please join us: In Person Walk 4.4 Miles or Virtually Run/Walk 5K to bring Awareness, Change, And Justice in Anthony’s honor and support the fight against Distracted Drivers. 100% of all proceeds will go directly to the Anthony Calls 4 Humanity Foundation, a 501c3 nonprofit organization dedicated to Advocate, Educate and Support the need for Humanity, that also targets Hospital Policy for Unidentified Persons, And towards Awareness and Solutions to end Distracted Driving. The foundation was created in honor of Anthony Mejias, a beautiful 19 year old boy with a life song of spreading love and joy with a huge heart filled with compassion that left imprints to everyone that met him. Unfortunately he did not receive that from others on the night he was killed by a distracted driver. Easter weekend 2021, Anthony sought out to go home to visit his family. His bus stop in Orlando, FL would be the start of events that would rob him from his promising future and create a hole in the hearts of many that love him. Through the coarse of that night and several days after, he endured an immense lack of humanity which ended with his vibrant life taken away by a distracted driver who was either texting or under the influence while driving, to add to the tragedy, the driver heartlessly fled the scene.

- LET US TREAT ONE ANOTHER HOW WE HOPE TO BE TREATED - 

For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me. “Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you? “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me. MATHEW 25: 35-40
