TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) - All month WTXL has been asking you for donations, and Thursday you delivered.
With your help, the 4th Annual WTXL Turkey Drive collected 358 turkeys and $21,893 dollars in donations.
Let's take a closer look at the full day of excitement.
The Turkey Drive started 4 years ago as a way to help reach out into our community and help. WTXL had done some small events with the Second Harvest of the Big Bend and this idea was a great way to help them on a larger scale.
Through the years, the event has gone from helping raise enough money and collect enough turkeys for close to 14,500 meals for families here in our area to last year being able to provide over 73,000 meals.
ALL of the donations, from turkeys to cash to checks, go straight to the Second Harvest of the Big Bend.
