Why participate?
At the heart of our mission is the belief that a strong, vibrant community begins with opportunities to connect, get active, and give back. In 2023, we launched our inaugural Turkey Trot, and it was nothing short of incredible! Over 50 of our neighbors laced up their shoes and hit the DVHS stadium track, bringing energy, laughter, and a spirit of togetherness to the event. It was more than just a run; it was a celebration of community spirit.
But the Turkey Trot was only the beginning. Alongside the run, we had over 20 dedicated volunteers who rolled up their sleeves to package and distribute bags of fresh produce and turkeys to families in need. Thanks to their hard work and the generosity of our supporters, we were able to assist over 350 families, ensuring that they had food on their tables during the holidays. Together, we raised over $9,000, all of which went directly toward helping families in our community.
Turkey Kits
One of our major goals is to provide Turkey Kits to 400 families this year which will include a turkey or ham, canned goods, and a pie. This is over 50 more than last year with more items!
Attendees
Have over 250 Turkey Trot attendees! Whether you're running the 5K or cheering your kid on in the 100M dash all are welcomed!
Causes
Raise over $50,000 for our winter initiatives. In addition to our turkey trot we are raising funds for our winter toy and gear drive for families and unhoused friends in the area.
