For 15 years, the Mavs Foundation has collaborated with Buckner International during the team’s Season of Giving to supply Thanksgiving meals to families in need.
And the word is out!
Hours before this year’s Mavs Turkey Giveaway on Nov. 20, dozens of cars began to line the street adjacent to the Buckner Humanitarian Aid Center.
With help from an extensive team of volunteers, 300 turkeys were distributed in just two hours.
In addition to donating the frozen turkeys, Kroger supplied reusable bags stuffed with canned corn, green beans, pumpkin puree and cranberry, mashed potatoes, yams, mini marshmallows, and cake mix with frosting, ensuring every family has a full Thanksgiving table.
