Trot

Detox before your retox at the Town of Palm Beach United Way Turkey Trot at Bradley Park. The Kids’ Drumstick Dash steps off at 7 a.m. followed by the chip-timed 5K run/walk at 7:30 a.m. The annual tradition funds holiday meals for families in need, with the 2025 race providing 7,756 meals.

Stock the Table

United Way of Palm Beach County’s Project Thanksgiving supports the Palm Beach County Food Bank through food drives and packing projects. While its dedicated November 12-13 shifts are sold out, locals can still donate or volunteer on alternative dates. 

Build a Basket

Join the Thanksgiving Basket Brigade Palm Beach County, whose volunteers shop for, assemble, and deliver complete Thanksgiving baskets to local families the Saturday before Thanksgiving. The grassroots effort served more than 250 families last year.
