The Turkey Trot is a family-oriented gratitude event that takes place annually on Thanksgiving morning in Dedham. Each year, we gather for a morning of joy, gratitude, and movement with the greater Dedham community. Through the trot, we raise funds for Dedham Food Pantry, Dedham Youth Commission, and local Ripples Initiatives.
Over the last 13 years, the Family Gratitude Turkey Trot has hosted 16,000+ runners and spectators and donated over 30,000 pounds of food for the Dedham Food Pantry. We have raised and distributed $400,000 since our inaugural year in 2012.

OUR PARTNERS
Through registering for the the race you can give directly to support work in Dedham and other local communities along with South Africa. Our partners work to reduce food insecurity, give young people the opportunities they deserve, and we have added helping families in need due to natural disasters and refugee resettlement.
Please be as generous as you can – it does make a difference to these wonderful organizations: Dedham Youth Commission, Dedham Food Pantry, and other local and global initiatives.
