2009 Turkey Hunters Care Program
	The Mon-Valley Longbeards Chapter of the National Wild Turkey Federation has stepped up to help less fortunate families in the area by offering warm smiles and hearty meals this holiday season. Through a state funded grant and our own money we were able to help many needy families in our area. We also are planning to help during the Christmas holiday as well.   Through the Turkey Hunters Care program, we were able to provide 220 turkeys to families in the area to help complete the traditional Thanksgiving dinner. Chapter Volunteers distributed 220 frozen domestic turkeys to the following foodbanks -South Hills Interfaith Ministries, Shiloh Baptist, Olivet Presbyterian Church, Greater Washington County Food Bank, Holy Resurrection Orthodox Church, St. Sebastian’s Church and St. Johns Church to help families in the area have a holiday to remember.   “The Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays are times for family, but they are also a time when many families are in need,” said NWTF CEO George Thornton. “Turkey Hunters Care is a great way for the NWTF’s volunteers to help these families during some of the most celebrated holidays of the year.”   For more information about the NWTF’s Turkey Hunters Care program, call (800)-THE-NWTF or visit www.nwtf.org or you can also contact a chapter officer.
