Jingle Jog
Stay active during the holiday season and support a great cause at the same time with the Darien Youth Community Fund’s Jingle Jog fundraiser!

Most Generous TownIt’s more than a football rivalry. Each year, Darien and New Canaan face off to see which town can capture the title of “Most Generous Town” by raising the most funds for either The Community Fund of Darien or the New Canaan Community Foundation. The competition runs for one week – the Thursday prior through Thanksgiving Day. The winning town owns the “Turkey Trophy” and bragging rights for the year, and their residents will take pride in the knowledge that their community makes charitable giving a priority.
