In what’s becoming a heartwarming pre-Thanksgiving tradition, District 3 Commissioner Martin Raxton is gearing up once again to join forces with Splendors of Africa for the 4th Annual Turkey Drive. The event is set to take place at the Douglas County Courthouse at 10 a.m. on saturday, aiming to provide 500 turkeys and accompanying side dishes to families grappling with financial hardships. Ensuring that community members can enjoy a nourishing holiday feast, the drive operates on a straightforward, first-come, first-served basis, welcoming one and all until the larder runs dry.
For a full decade and more, Splendors of Africa has striven to weave a thread of sustainability through the cloth of education and community development. Their latest collaboration with Commissioner Raxton is a testament to their commitment, with the turkey drive emblematic of their efforts towards bolstering community ties. “This partnership with Splendors of Africa is about more than just giving out turkeys it’s about building a stronger, more connected community,” Raxton enthused in a statement obtained byDouglas County Government. “Together, we re making sure families can gather and celebrate during the holiday season while also supporting long-term solutions for addressing the needs of serving the underserved.”
