Making an Impact Beyond the Finish Line

For 2026, all proceeds will benefit Twelve Days of Holidays, Inc. – Loudoun County Chapter and American Legion Post 2001 – Leonard W. Kidd Memorial.

Twelve Days of Holidays, Inc. – Loudoun County Chapter, is a nonprofit organization dedicated to bringing hope, joy and meaningful support to local children and families in need. Its Loudoun County chapter serves the community throughout the year through literacy initiatives, back-to-school support, family outreach and holiday assistance. In 2026, the organization’s goal is to provide 50 Loudoun County families with a brighter holiday season while offering dignity, encouragement and the reminder that their community cares.

American Legion Post 2001 is an all-volunteer organization serving veterans, military families and youth throughout Loudoun County. Founded in Ashburn as a living tribute to Specialist Five Leonard Whitley Kidd, the only Ashburn resident killed in action during the Vietnam War, the Post provides emergency financial assistance and disability-claims support to local veterans. It also invests in area youth through leadership and educational programs, Scouting sponsorships and community remembrance initiatives. Turkey Trot proceeds will directly support these important programs serving our Loudoun County neighbors.
