Benefitting the Wake Forest Boys & Girls Club

Over $1,000,000 Raised

For more than 20 years, Gobbler's Run has been bringing our community together on Thanksgiving morning for a tradition that gives back in a big way. Thanks to the incredible support of our runners, sponsors, and volunteers, Gobbler's Run has raised more than $1,000,000 to benefit the Wake Forest Boys & Girls Club.

Since opening its doors in 1986, the Wake Forest Boys & Girls Club has provided a safe, supportive place for young people to learn, grow, and thrive. Today, the Club serves more than 1,100 local children, helping shape brighter futures for the next generation.

Every step you take on Thanksgiving morning helps make that impact possible. Click below to learn more about how Gobbler's Run supports the Wake Forest Boys & Girls Club.
