Turkey Drop

November 20, 2024

Turkey Drop is an annual tradition in West Michigan. Mel Trotter Ministries, WOOD Radio, and Celebration Cinema partner together for an entire day devoted to collecting frozen turkeys for our neighbors in need in the greater Grand Rapids area.

Thank you to the community for helping us exceed our goal of 5,000 turkeys.

Give to Turkey Drop

Join us today to meet the urgent needs of hurting neighbors.

Your gift today will help someone in need receive a hearty Thanksgiving meal. Monetary gifts are accepted before, on or after Turkey Drop day. Every $20 donated counts as one turkey towards the goal.

Event FAQ

How do I get involved?

Participating in our annual Turkey Drop is easy! All you have to do is drive up and drop off one or more frozen turkeys to Celebration Cinema North or Celebration Cinema South on Wednesday, November 15 between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m.

Monetary donations are also encouraged at meltrotter.org/give-turkey-drop.

What is the turkey goal this year?

This year, we are aiming to collect 5,000 turkeys! The more turkeys we receive, the more individuals and families will be blessed in our community.

Can I give to Turkey Drop?

Absolutely! Monetary gifts are accepted before, on or after Turkey Drop day. With every $20 donated, we are able to buy at least one turkey. 

How do you use monetary donations?

The funds that help us reach our goal will be used to purchase turkeys for the Thanksgiving Community Meal. Any gifts raised above and beyond the goal will go towards feeding the guests in the winter months, as 1 in 3 families are now food insecure.

How can I receive a turkey?

We partner with Feeding America West Michigan for Turkey Drop. They collect all of the turkeys and distrubute them. To receive turkeys, contact Feeding America at 616-432-6970. You will need to become a partner agency, but for turkeys it will not cost you.

Individuals need to contact a local agency in order to get a turkey.
