Over the last 15 years, East Cobb Rotary has distributed almost a million dollars to local charities through the Dog Days race. That’s a large part of what Rotary is all about – providing a framework where community members can combine their time and treasure to benefit others that need help. In 2019, our club collected and distributed $92,000 to help local non-profit organizations.

This year the need is greater than ever. For 2020, our club set a goal of raising $125,000 to support these and other good causes, and then the pandemic struck. While the experts have advised that we just can’t do a 1000 runner event this year, we believe our community will come together to support these causes anyway. 

We sure hope to be running again next year!
