The Cause

The Y: We're for Youth Development, Healthy Living, Social Responsibility

The Y in Central Maryland's Annual Thanksgiving Morning Turkey Trot Charity 5K is a family event that raises urgently needed funds to support children and families in Central Maryland.

These families and children are living at or below the federal poverty level and cannot afford experiences available to many children including, a quality preschool education, summer camps and after-school activities that keep children safe and healthy.

What will YOU help us do this year?

The Y serves thousands of children and families in the region and each year the demand for financial aid for Y youth programs grows. With your generous support, we will be able to help those families throughout Central Maryland who depend on the Y to remove income as a barrier to opportunity for their children.

Thank you for your interest and we look forward to you joining us for this wonderful Thanksgiving morning tradition.

Register and start fundraising today.

Happy Thanksgiving!
