With the Thanksgiving holiday approaching, Foodshare is planning a “Turkey and 30” drive, asking for contributions to help people in need.
“Thanksgiving is a holiday for everyone – shared across communities, across faiths, across the country,” Foodshare says. “Your gift of a turkey will help our neighbors in need celebrate this Thanksgiving, plus your donation of $30 will support our efforts to fight hunger throughout the year.”
Foodshare will have a “Turkey and 30” drive on Saturday, November 23, 2019 from 10:00am to 3:00pm. It will be held at the Costco in New Britain, which is located at 405 Hartford Road.
Foodshare says, “Stop by Costco on November 23 with your donation of a turkey and $30 to support your neighbors in need this Thanksgiving.”
“Not able to attend in person, you can easily donate online,” Foodshare says, directing people to its website. That New Britain food drive “team” website tells people people that, “To make a donation to this fundraiser you can either join our team or select a team member and make a donation on their behalf.”
Foodshare’s website also says that there will be a “Turkey and 30” at the New Britain Stop and Shop on Sunday, November 24th, located at 1309 Corbin Avenue, from 10:00am to 4:00pm.
Foodshare says that it, “is Greater Hartford’s regional food bank, connecting surplus food to our network of 300 partner food pantries, meal programs, and Mobile Foodshare sites.”
