Trinity Health Foundation has kicked off its 12th annual Turkey Drive in support of the KHRT Horn of Plenty. Now in its 40th year, Horn of Plenty brings community members together to help families in need shortly before Christmas.
Dusty Zimmerman, director of the Trinity Health Foundation, says this year’s Turkey Drive will again focus on raising funds to provide turkeys, toys and other food items to families within a 100-mile radius of Minot. Last year, Horn of Plenty benefitted over 350 families.
“We hope the community will join with Trinity’s staff, providers, and board members to make a difference in the health of our community and give families hope at a critical time of the year,” Zimmerman said.
This year’s goal is to raise $16,500. While donations can be contributed in any amount, $20 is the sum needed to sponsor a turkey and $60 will sponsor an entire basket of food.
The Turkey Drive runs through December 1. People may contribute by sending their donations to Trinity Health Foundation Turkey Drive at PO Box 5020, Minot, ND 58702, by visiting the Foundation’s website at trinityhealth.org/foundation/donate-to-the-foundation/turkey-drive/, or by calling the Foundation office at 701-857-2430.
