Seth Foster was one of the students at Hillcrest School who presented one of the first turkeys, “It’s important to me because it helps me learn the value of, giving is more important than receiving and it makes you feel really good. Turkeys are a tradition and all families should have one.”

Grade 7 student Annabelle Allison-Lance says, “It’s nice to feel happy that other families are getting something for Christmas, something that they need.”

Turkey Central is now open for turkey donations. They’ll be accepting each day from 10 to 7 until Friday December 7th.
