Holiday Turkey Project

For the past 36 years, the Drexel University community has lent its support to the Annual Alumni Holiday Turkey Project, providing holiday turkeys to families in-need within the university's neighborhood.

On December 18, 2008, more than 35 alumni, faculty, staff, student, and community volunteers distributed turkeys to nearly 60 community organizations in West Philadelphia and to families served by Drexel's 11th Street Family Health Services Center. Through the generous support of the Drexel community and the Alumni Association's partnership with the United Way of Southeastern Pennsylvania, together the project provided 1,800 families with holiday turkeys.

Once again, the generosity of the Drexel community will help provide a festive holiday meal to families in the university’s neighborhood. The need for support continues to grow each year and we ask you to please consider supporting the project. A donation of $25 will provide 2-3 families with turkey dinners for the holiday season.

Drexel alumni, students, faculty, staff and friends are asked to support the project by volunteering to assist with our turkey distribution on Thursday, December 17, 2009.
