One Generation Away Launches “Give Thanks, Give a Turkey” Drive to Ensure Every Family Has a Thanksgiving Meal
$25 Donation Provides One Turkey and a Chance to Win OneGenAway Gear
FRANKLIN, TENN. (November 7, 2024) – One Generation Away, a Franklin-based nonprofit dedicated to fighting hunger across Tennessee and beyond, is launching the “Give Thanks, Give a Turkey” drive. Now through November 27, 2024, each $25 donation will provide a turkey for a family in need to help ensure that no one misses out on a Thanksgiving meal.
Donors that contribute $25 will be entered into a drawing to win a OneGenAway hat or t-shirt. Those who donate $100 or more will automatically receive their choice of a free OneGenAway hat or t-shirt.
“OneGenAway’s mission is built on the belief that no family should face food insecurity, and during the holidays it is especially meaningful,” says Chris Whitney, Co-Founder of OneGenAway. “It’s more than just providing a family a turkey – it’s about bringing people together and the hope of the holidays.”
“With each donation, we come closer to our goal of providing every family with the warmth and comfort of a Thanksgiving meal.”
This year’s turkey drive continues OneGenAway’s tradition of providing thousands of turkeys to families in need each Thanksgiving.
