Calendar

This one day food drive will give us and the community the opportunity to collect the last minute items we need.  Join us as you shop for your Thanksgiving needs or to volunteer.  www.500turkeys.com/volunteer

Food drop off is a fun event where all 40,000 (estimated) collected food items get dropped off, sorted and counted.  The community collects the food.  If our counts are short, we will collect those items at the food drive on the following week.  You can sign up to volunteer but if it is full, put yourself on the waiting list incase someone cancels.  Go to 500turkeys.com/volunteer to do that.

On November 13th please come and do some shopping or you can sign up to volunteer ONE hour of your time to help at Town & Country in Valpo.  Click here to volunteer >> 500turkeys.com/volunteer

Box Packing takes place over 2 evenings. All non-perishable food items will be pre-packaged into 1400+ boxes for more efficient distribution the next weekend.  This year, we will not be organizing clothing.  We do that at a different location now.

For safety reasons, we will again ask for only adult volunteers.  Sign ups to volunteer and more info about exact times and ages will be available at least 3 weeks before the event on our web site 500turkeys.com/volunteer .
