Help us put Thanksgiving meals on the tables of local families! Awaken Outreach Center is partnering with The JOY FM for T-Shirts for Turkeys, and every donation helps us serve neighbors who could use a little extra support this holiday season.

Bring a frozen turkey and receive a newly designed JOY FM T-shirt as a thank-you! You can also give a $15 “paper turkey” donation or a $15 gift card from a local grocery store.

Together, we can share the love of Jesus through something as practical and personal as a meal. Donations need to be dropped off at our Awaken Outreach Center from 5pm to 7pm.
