As the Dallas YMCA Turkey Trot gears up for its 57th annual race, I am reaching out to you on behalf of the YMCA of Metropolitan Dallas. Our event, scheduled for Thanksgiving morning, November 28th, at Dallas City Hall Plaza, anticipates a significant turnout with almost 18,000 participants joining in the festivities last year alone.

The Dallas YMCA Turkey Trot is not just a race; it's a cherished family tradition that supports vital youth and family programs offered by the YMCA. These programs, including Safety Around Water, After School programming, Youth & Government, and LiveStrong, serve as cornerstones in our community. As a 501(c)(3) organization, the YMCA is committed to making a meaningful impact in the lives of those we serve.

To make this year's Turkey Trot even more memorable, we're looking to involve local businesses like yours. We would be honored to include your company as a contributor to this significant event. Specifically, we are seeking donations of items or gift certificates that can be used as random finisher prizes. While not everyone can come in first, second, or third place, these random prizes add an extra layer of excitement and engagement for participants.

In return for your generosity, we will proudly acknowledge your company on our Dallas YMCA Turkey Trot webpage as a token of our gratitude. Additionally, we are happy to promote your business and gift through our social media channels as we approach the event date.

Should you choose to support us in this endeavor, please feel free to mail your contributions to:

Your donation, no matter the size, will make a significant difference in the success of the Dallas YMCA Turkey Trot and the programs it supports. For more information about the event, please visit our website at www.thetrot.org.

Thank you for considering this opportunity to partner with us in promoting health, wellness, and community spirit in Dallas.

Warm regards,
