Operation Wake County Holiday Cheer
Our favorite event of the year, Operation Wake County Holiday Cheer, is here!
Beginning in 2011, Operation Wake County Holiday Cheer is a project the nOg Run Club fundraises for all year long, sponsoring hundreds of children each holiday season to deliver presents to all. To date we have sponsored a total of 828 local children and over $11,000 worth of toys paid off on layaway!
This year we will be sponsoring 138 children and have a goal of paying off $5,000 worth of toys on layaway.
In normal years, proceeds from the St. Paddy’s 4 Miler, World’s Largest Flip Flop 1K, Oktoberfest 4 Miler, merchandise sales and donations help fund Operation Wake County Holiday Cheer. Due to COVID, our fundraising from races has been significantly diminished. If you would like to make a tax deductible donation to help us sponsor children, please click here.
