Salvation Army hosts 22nd annual Carson City Turkey Drop this Friday at Max Casino
A community that shares is a community that cares. Capital City residents, known to go above and beyond in their generosity during the holiday season, are invited to participate in this Friday's 22nd annual Carson City Turkey Drop hosted by the Salvation Army, Max Casino and KKFT 99.1.
Feed a family in need this Thanksgiving by donating a turkey at Max Casino, 900 S. Carson Street. Salvation Army volunteers will be collecting turkeys to fill holiday food baskets for families in need in the Carson City, Douglas County and the surrounding communities.
Each year hundreds of families in need depend on The Salvation Army's Turkey Drop to provide for their Thanksgiving dinner.
The event is from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. with broadcast updates by KKFT 99.1. Those who wish to help can bring frozen turkeys to the Turkey Drop or cash donations can be made so The Salvation Army can buy turkeys.
If you are unable to bring a turkey, donations can be made by credit card by calling The Salvation Army at 775-350-5190 between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. on the day of the Turkey Drop. Checks can be mailed to The Salvation Army, 911 E. 2nd St. Carson City, NV 89701. To make a credit card donation online go to carsonturkeydrop.org
"The Salvation Army is extremely grateful for you and the numerous blessings you have bestowed upon the people of this community throughout the years. With your help we have been able to assist thousands of individuals and families locally who sought our assistance in the last 22 years," said Salvation Army Capt. Mark Cyr.
For more information, please call (775) 350-5190.
