In addition to receiving turkeys, the 1,000 recipients will also receive one $50 Fiesta Mart gift card each to assist with purchasing side dish items to complete their meals.  The gift cards, valued at $50,000 – a $30,000 increase from last year – are sponsored by Witherite Law Group and 1-800-TruckWreck and will be distributed during the turkey giveaway.

Approximately 970,000 people in the Dallas-Fort Worth area struggle with food insecurity, which, according to two local food banks, is enough to fill Globe Life Field more than 24 times. Poverty, unemployment, lack of affordable housing, chronic health conditions and racism all contribute to food insecurity. This, coupled with continuously rising food prices, makes it more difficult for families to meet their daily dietary needs. Witherite Law Group and its partners are committed to serving the community and ensuring those impacted by economic circumstances can have a healthy meal this holiday season.
