The Daffodil Dash

The Daffodil Dash is an event commemorating the Holocaust, and Georgia Genocide Prevention Month 2024.

The Daffodil Dash is a Run/Walk in memory of the 1.5 million children who perished in the Holocaust and in support for children suffering in the face of genocide and other humanitarian crises in the world today. The Daffodil Dash raises awareness and funds for Holocaust Education and Genocide Awareness.  Proceeds benefit  Am Yisrael Chai!, a non-profit Holocaust Education and Awareness organization, as well as the “Kids for Kids”, “Raising South Sudan” and “Agahozo Shalom”, organizations helping children and families in remote villages in Darfur, South Sudan and Rwanda. The race also supports the Atlanta Holocaust Survivor fund, providing medical, dental and home care for Holocaust survivors. The race will be held at Brook Run Park on Sunday, April 7th, 2024, and will also offer virtual options. This means you can sign up to run, walk, bike or exercise from anywhere, anytime between March 15 and April 7th, 2024.

A Holocaust Survivor and a refugee speaker will bring their messages of hope, survival and the importance of tolerance at the Daffodil Dash event on Sunday, April 7th.

Start a team or join a team to support The Daffodil Dash. We are encouraging teams from schools, synagogues, churches, youth groups, corporate and others.
