More than just a race, The Daffodil Dash serves a profound purpose. This 15th annual event commemorates the 1.5 million children who perished in the Holocaust and champions the cause of children facing humanitarian crises worldwide.

The race also contributes to the Atlanta Holocaust Survivor Fund and the Jewish Federation of Atlanta Israel support Fund. Runners are encouraged to deepen their impact by bringing new or gently used items such as clothing, blankets, or non-perishable foods to be donated to refugee families.

The Daffodil Dash cultivates a supportive and community-focused atmosphere, often featuring Holocaust survivors and refugee speakers who share powerful messages of hope and tolerance. It's an opportunity to connect with fellow participants while contributing to vital causes. Whether you're aiming for a personal best or enjoying a refreshing walk, this 5K promises an engaging experience with a lasting positive impact.
