Beneficiary

This year’s fun run will benefit the Warm Neighbors Fund of Catskill Alliance for Housing Preservation. The Catskills Alliance for Housing & Preservation (CAHP) is a resident-led nonprofit dedicated to preserving and revitalizing the towns of Shandaken and Olive in Ulster County. Their mission is to support the creation of more workforce, senior, and middle-income housing, and to provide homeowner services to help residents remain in their homes as they age. The Warm Neighbors Fund, CAHP's winter heat program, provides micro-grants to income eligible residents who are struggling to pay their heat bills. Now in its 2nd year, the WNF plans to expand its services this coming winter to include helping residents obtain free home energy audits, and apply to be accepted into NYSERDA's Empower+ program which provides free home weatherization upgrades.

Proceeds from The 2025 Phoenicia Turkey Trot raised $7,400 for the Good Company Club.

Proceeds from The 2024 Phoenicia Turkey Trot raised $6,000 for Shandaken Parks and Recreation.

Proceeds from The 2023 Phoenicia Turkey Trot raised $4,000 for a Shandaken Playgrounds Upgrades Project  under the Shandaken Parks and Recreation Committee.

The Phoenicia Turkey Trot has supported many projects over the years, including libraries, the Phoenicia Food Pantry, parks, and the Phoenicia Playhouse.
