HARRIS COMMUNITY WORKS ANNOUNCES
15TH ANNUAL TURKEY GIVEAWAY
HOSTED BY FOUNDER TIP “T.I.” HARRIS
JOINED BY ATLANTA CITY COUNCILMEMBER ANDREA BOONE, LOCAL ATLANTA REPRESENTATIVES AND MORE
TO UPLIFT UNDERSERVED FAMILIES & SENIORS IN ATLANTA
WHY: The 15th Annual Turkey Giveaway serves families and seniors in need. These families have come to rely on this Turkey drive every year to make their Thanksgiving meals possible. During these unprecedented times and despite all the restrictions due to COVID-19, Harris Community Works will continue the tradition and has adjusted the normal indoor Turkey Giveaway to a drive- through pick up.
WHO: The event will be hosted by T.I.’s Harris Community Works, a subsidiary of Us or Else Corp (501c3). The non-profit has partnered with the City of Atlanta along with other contributors including Humana, Kroger, AKOO, Bankhead Seafood and more.
Grammy Award-winning recording artist, actor and philanthropist Tip “T.I.” Harris will be joined by Councilmember Andrea Boone, family members, friends, local Atlanta representatives and dozens of volunteers.
WHAT: The 15th Annual Turkey Giveaway will provide 1,000 turkeys and produce (greens & sweet potatoes) to pre-selected underserved families and seniors in Atlanta’s Westside community. Each year, families are pre-identified through a city-wide selection with civic agencies and partners. The event will take place outdoors this year and will be contact-free and COVID-compliant.
WHERE: ATLANTA, GA
WHEN: Tuesday, November 24, 2020 2pm EST
