The Applied Materials Silicon Valley Turkey Trot is celebrating its 15th anniversary

From elite runners to family strolls, it has become a treasured tradition for everyone.

Be a part of a community of over 25,000 trotters making a difference in the largest Thanksgiving run in the United States.

Founded and produced by the Silicon Valley Leadership Group Foundation, the Turkey Trot has raised $8.7 million for five local charities: Healthier Kids Foundation Santa Clara County, Housing Trust Silicon Valley, Second Harvest of Silicon Valley, Second Harvest Food Bank of Santa Cruz County and The Health Trust.

By registering, donating, or volunteering you can help reach this year's goal of raising $1 million dollars for the beneficiaries to continue in providing our community with health, hope, and a home.
