Turkey Drop

Nov

17

7 a.m. - 7 p.m.

Turkey Drop is an annual tradition in West Michigan. Mel Trotter Ministries, WOOD Radio, and Celebration Cinema partner together for an entire day devoted to collecting frozen turkeys for our neighbors in need in the greater Grand Rapids area.

Mel Trotter Ministries is partnering with Feeding America West Michigan this year to distribute turkeys. If your agency is interested in receiving turkeys, please contact Feeding America at 616-784-3250. If your organization is a partner agency, please have your agency number available. If your organization is not yet a partner agency, please call and Feeding America will get you signed up as a partner agency.

Give Turkeys!

Thank you to WOOD Radio for partnering and promoting this event with MTM every year.

How do I get involved?

Participating in our annual Turkey Drop is easy! All you have to do is drive up and drop off one or more frozen turkeys to Celebration Cinema North or Celebration Cinema South on Wednesday, November 17 between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m.

Monetary donations are also encouraged at meltrotter.org/give-turkey-drop.
What is the turkey goal this year?

This year, we are aiming to collect 2,500 turkeys! The more turkeys we receive, the more individuals and families will be blessed in our community.
Can I give to Turkey Drop?

Absolutely! Monetary gifts are accepted before, on or after Turkey Drop day. With every $15 donated, we are able to buy at least one turkey.
How do you use monetary donations?

The funds that help us reach our goal will be used to purchase turkey for the Thanksgiving meal at Mel Trotter. Any gifts raised above and beyond the goal will go towards feeding the guests in the winter months, as 1 in 3 families are now food insecure.
