16th Annual Harlem Turkey Drive Set for November 23 in New York, With 400 Turkeys and 500 Hot Meals
The 16th Annual Harlem Turkey Drive will be held on Monday, November 23, at the Polo Grounds PAL Community Center, 2999 Frederick Douglass Boulevard in Harlem, New York City. According to an announcement released by organiser SocietyX on November 13, this year's distribution will be the largest in the event's history.
Organisers will give out 400 whole turkeys, each with a grocery package containing 12 Thanksgiving fixings, alongside 500 freshly prepared hot meals. Supporters include Amber and CC Sabathia's PitCCh In Foundation, NFL star Allen Robinson II, and Chef JJ Johnson of FIELDTRIP, a James Beard Award winner.
Jaclyn Rosenberg, founder and CEO of SocietyX, who founded the drive, said: "Sixteen years ago, we started this Turkey Drive with one simple goal: to make sure families in Harlem had food on their tables for Thanksgiving." She said this year's distribution, backed by donors and volunteers, would be larger than ever before.
On the day, volunteers will set up from 12 to 2 p.m., hot meals will be served from 4 to 6 p.m., and turkeys and grocery packages will be distributed from 5 to 7 p.m., with face painting and other family activities on site. On Sunday, November 22, from 4 to 6 p.m., volunteers will assemble the grocery packages at the ACME Supermarket at 125 18th Street in Jersey City, New Jersey.
Rosenberg started the turkey drive 16 years ago as a grassroots effort. It has since become a Harlem Thanksgiving tradition supported by professional athletes and local businesses.
