Start In Your City
Providing food to the homeless and less fortunate is a difficult program to organize nationally. But handing out several dinners each year is very easy to start. In fact, you simply hand out one meal the first year.
This gets you comfortable with the process of helping your community. You will look forward to the next year when you can hand out two dinners and double the number of people you helped the previous year.
The reason our program works is that it is local. This isn't backed by a large well-funded national entity. We do not dilute the effectiveness of the program with donations. It is sponsored by you. We merely provide you with the tools and the knowledge that we have gained by handing out dinners ourselves.
Families:
Families are encouraged to participate in the Operation Turkey program. Each family member can help assemble dinners. This process takes very little effort but reaps huge rewards with the people in your community that are fed. The simple "Thank You" that is offered in return for the dinner is more than enough to cover the effort to package and hand out the dinners.
Businesses:
A great program for businesses is the "Your Company Name Operation Turkey." No employee needs to be left out of the program. Each employee can contribute time, food or clothes. Then, on Thanksgiving, the employees can band together to hand out the food. This is a great way to share in the community outreach with your colleagues.
Companies can also sponsor families who create our larger programs.
For example: The Smith family is now on year 5 of the program. They hand out 16 dinners along with clothes and blankets. SurfMySite, Inc. delivers cans of string beans, yams and several coats to the Smiths. The family arranges to have the dinners delivered on Thanksgiving night.
