The L.I. for OK 5K run/walk was hosted at Jean Cochran Park on Peconic Lane in Peconic Sunday.

Participants were asked to bring donations of socks and underwear, toiletries, work gloves, heavy-duty garbage bags, baby supplies and shoes. There was music and a table for kids to make greeting cards to be sent to young tornado victims.

All proceeds go to tornado victims in Oklahoma.

Anyone who’d like to donate but couldn’t attend can go to the NOFO Inspire Facebook page or call (631) 741-8867 or (631) 875-3437.
