Salvation Army to Host Turkey Giveaway with Scheduled Pick-Up on November 24

The Salvation Army in Bradenton is preparing to help local families celebrate the holiday season with its annual Turkey Giveaway on November 24. The event, which provides free turkeys to residents ahead of Thanksgiving, will take place from 1 to 4 p.m. at 5328 24th Street East in Bradenton.

Organizers are asking participants to reserve a pick-up time in advance to keep the process smooth and efficient. Families can secure their spot by scanning the QR code on the event flyer or by using the online registration link. Scheduled pick-ups allow volunteers to manage traffic flow better and ensure that each household receives their holiday meal without long waits.

The Salvation Army encourages early registration, as demand is expected to be high in the days leading up to the Thanksgiving holiday. The giveaway is part of the organization’s ongoing effort to support Manatee County families in need and ensure that everyone has the opportunity to enjoy a festive holiday meal.

The event is free and open to the community, with volunteers on hand throughout the afternoon to distribute turkeys and offer assistance.
