Turkey Trots are proving that school and community fundraisers don’t have to rely on candy sales or pizza parties to be successful. By getting families moving naturally, connecting with neighbors, and celebrating healthier traditions, these events raise support while building well-being at the same time. It’s a model that strengthens community health and shows what’s possible when we choose activities that help everyone live better, longer.
