Giving Thanks Through Community: Supporting the 21st Annual Race Against Hunger and Homelessness

Thanksgiving morning in Laurel, Maryland, is about more than just the holiday—it’s about coming together as a community to support those in need.

This year marked the 21st Annual Race Against Hunger and Homelessness, a beloved Thanksgiving tradition organized by Laurel Advocacy & Referral Services (LARS). The annual Turkey Trot brings together runners, walkers, volunteers, families, and local businesses, all united by a shared mission: helping neighbors facing hunger and homelessness.

Proud to Support LARS and Their Mission

Sheehy Toyota of Laurel was honored to sponsor this year’s event and support the essential work LARS does year-round. As an organization deeply rooted in the Laurel community, LARS provides critical assistance to individuals and families experiencing hardship—offering food support, housing resources, and advocacy when it’s needed most.

Sponsoring the Race Against Hunger and Homelessness is one way we can help amplify their mission and encourage community involvement during a season focused on gratitude and giving.

A Meaningful Thanksgiving Morning

From seasoned runners to families walking together, the energy on Thanksgiving morning was inspiring. Every step taken and every dollar raised helps LARS continue their impact across the Laurel area, making this event a powerful reminder of how small actions can create lasting change.

Thank You, Laurel

We extend our sincere thanks to Laurel Advocacy & Referral Services for organizing this impactful event, and to everyone who participated, volunteered, or supported the cause. Your commitment helps ensure that fewer families in our community face hunger or homelessness alone.

At Sheehy Toyota of Laurel, we’re proud to stand with organizations like LARS and remain committed to giving back to the community we serve—on Thanksgiving and throughout the year. ❤️
