Our largest fundraiser is our Thanksgiving Day race (10k, 2k, tot trot) co-sponsored with the B-CC YMCA. The race takes place in downtown Bethesda.  Started in 1982, the race has grown to be one of the largest charity races in the area. To learn more, visit https://www.turkeychase.com/ 

With the support of the club foundation and other local Rotary clubs,  members come together to provide Thanksgiving food baskets and grocery store gift cards to more than 240 food-insecure families in the community.

The club buys necessities and gifts for children at two local elementary schools. School staff identify the economically challenged students and provide the club with wish lists. 

The club sponsors collection drives and purchasing of essential items to support families in Montgomery County through charities such as A Wider Circle. Members also donate time to the organizations.

Each year, the club holds a holiday party hosted by a club member. Donations from the party support The Rotary Foundation for Polio Plus. Happy Bucks donated during weekly club meetings are also donated to the fund.
