About

Using food collected from this year's Turkeypalooza can drive and in-kind donations from local grocery stores, volunteers will prepare Thanksgiving meals for older adult families experiencing food insecurity in the kitchen space at Covenant Presbyterian Church. UGA students and community members of all culinary backgrounds are welcome! Volunteers will be given a brief food safety and kitchen training before they begin.
