Event Overview
Since 2016, TBN’s annual Thanksgiving Turkey Drive has ensured that families in need can enjoy a full Thanksgiving meal. This event has grown each year with the support of our community and partners. We are proud to partner with Prospect Sierra Schools, whose contributions since 2020 have helped us serve over 500 families each year with a turkey and a bag of essential holiday food items. This year, the event will be held at the Richmond City Recreation Complex and will feature a streamlined check-in and distribution process to make it easy and efficient for all participants.
