The nation's largest one day holiday turkey drive came to Phoenix yesterday and wow, this is always one of those days that really let's me know how many kind and giving people there still are out there. With so many individuals and families struggling to pay bills and buy food for the table, it's tear jerking to see the generosity.
My mother is a regular volunteer at this event held at Bashas, one of the local grocery stores that collects the turkeys and I always make it a point to drop off a few turkeys at her site each year. When I arrived I saw a shopping cart filled with 12lb turkeys and I asked who made the donation and was told that a Texas family had dropped them off..Another donation of 36 turkeys was made by a man in a wheelchair who went through the grocery line with his assistance dog.
Please, help those that are less fortunate throughout this holiday season, nothing is too small! Remember, Thanksgiving is all about "giving"!
Enjoy your holiday!
