About Us
Our initiative
Recognizing that the economic impact of COVID-19 has taken a heavy toll on many families in southeastern Michigan, the Jive Turkeys are expanding their reach this year and will feed 3,000 families, totaling upwards to feed 30,000 people across Flint, Pontiac, Highland Park, Kalamazoo, Muskegon Heights, and the city of Detroit.
​
Jive Turkeys Detroit is a non-profit organization of more than 150 members whose motto is “Feeding families is what we do!” In years past, group members shopped, packed, and distributed food for Thanksgiving meals. This year, as they did in 2020, the group will be distributing turkeys paired with $40 gift cards to the 3,000 families to purchase the necessities for a complete meal.
BECOME A SPONSOR
Your involvement with Jive Turkeys Detroit is an opportunity for your organization to receive exposure and join other individuals, organizations and coalitions to educate others about the food shortage, promote healthy eating and create and strengthen community partnerships.
​
Community sponsors are the primary source of funding for Jive Turkeys Detroit events and will help ensure its success. You can provide support by being a co-sponsor or event supporter through a monetary donation. Your company logo will be included on the event's promotional materials as well!
