"UCCA is extremely grateful for our twenty-year partnership with the Dan Gibbons Turkey Trot. During this time, with the support of the Turkey Trot, UCCA has been able to serve thousands of families in need in District 205 who are facing food insecurity. The number of families that UCCA serves continues to increase as SNAP benefits decrease and food prices increase.  This makes our ongoing partnership with the Dan Gibbons Turkey Trot even more essential, now and in the future”

"The Outreach House was so appreciative of the generous donation we received in 2022 from the Dan Gibbons Turkey Trot. With increasing need for food assistance among local residents the donation was welcomed to help us keep our shelves filled with protein, dairy, fresh produce and essential non-perishable staples. Congratulations on 40 years of helping DuPage non-profits!"

"Thank you Dan Gibbons Turkey Trot Foundation for your ongoing support of Elmhurst-Yorkfield Food Pantry.

"We are so grateful for the support of the Dan Gibbons Turkey Trot—now in their 40^th year! That’s 40 years of making sure people in our community have access to food and shelter during times when they need it the most. Our thanks to the organizers and runners who help to make this event possible each year. We see each day the impact it makes in the lives of people who are hungry and in need of a safe place to sleep."

“We are honored to be among the charities supported by the Dan Gibbons Turkey Trot for the past many years. Dan and the Foundation are deeply committed to our shared mission of ending hunger in our community. Every year this event allows us to get closer to that goal!”

"EWAN has been a beneficiary of the DGTT for many years, which actually means our Elmhurst neighbors in need have been beneficiaries. The funds we receive from the race have helped us keep a great many families in their homes during difficult times, bringing them security and peace of mind as they work to get back on their feet. We know for many the Turkey Trot is just a great way to kick-off Thanksgiving, but runners really should be proud of the tangible good they're doing by participating in the race."

“Catholic Charities thanks the Dan Gibbons Turkey Trot Foundation for supporting the work we do to help our DuPage County neighbors meet their most basic needs by providing food and shelter. We are proud to have our staff and their families play an active role in the annual Turkey Trot for over the past 10 years and we look forward to our continued partnership to end hunger in DuPage.”

"People’s Resource Center congratulates the Dan Gibbons Foundation on the 40th Anniversary of its Turkey Trot.
