7th Annual Kent Turkey Challenge



Torklift Central’s 7th Annual Kent Turkey Challenge

During the holiday’s many of us sit down to share a warm Thanksgiving meal with our families and friends while hundreds of families in our community stand in lines in the hopes of getting food from the Kent Food Bank.

In order to give them a memorable Thanksgiving and holiday season, the community can join together for the 7th Annual Kent Turkey Challenge and help out our neighbors with a goal of raising $25,000 and 10,000 pounds of food.

Over the past six years, donations to the Kent Food Bank from the Annual Kent Turkey Challenge total more than $111,976 and 33,560 pounds of food, feeding thousands of people that would otherwise go without a Thanksgiving meal. Last year, the turkey challenge raised so much money that the food bank was also able to purchase turkeys and chickens, as well as real butter, fresh celery and fresh sweet potatoes.



Every year the Annual Kent Turkey Challenge grows in popularity and competition between the local businesses and organizations involved. Last year alone we had 79 businesses join! A friendly rivalry, the Annual Kent Turkey Challenge is to see who can collect and raise the most food and monetary donations for the Kent Food Bank. One hundred percent of the proceeds are given to local Kent families that are combating hunger during Thanksgiving and year round.

Torklift Central asks for your support to make the 7th Annual Kent Turkey Challenge the most successful to date. As a community, this is an opportunity for us to make a lasting positive impact in the lives of families by making sure no one is turned away from the Kent Food Bank because of lack of food.

With your help, we can reach our seventh anniversary goal that every family in our community will be able to share a special holiday meal and that no household will have to go hungry on Thanksgiving!
