T-Shirts for Turkeys returns to Coweta County Nov.10-12

Coweta Turkey Stops sponsored by 1st Franklin Financial

From Staff Reports

The Joy FM and 1st Franklin Financial are teaming up once again this year to help local families in need as the annual T-Shirts for Turkeys event returns.

This three-day happening in Coweta County begins Monday, November 10 and runs through Wednesday, November 12. Other locations in Georgia, Alabama, Florida and Tennessee will also hold Turkey Stops on Thursday, November 13.

Both The Joy FM and 1st Franklin Financial need the public’s help in stocking the freezers of the many area food banks and ministries who feed the local, hurting families.

People are asked to donate frozen turkeys at designated Chick-fil-A drop-off points. When folks donate a turkey, they will receive a newly designed Joy FM T-shirt.  And yes, they’ll accept “paper turkeys” at $15 or a $15 gift card from any local grocery store.

Those turkeys, which are dropped off, go immediately to the freezers of the food banks and homeless shelters. From there, those turkeys will be turned into food boxes, holiday meal plates and the warmth of hope and God’s love for the unfortunate in this community, many of whom are children.

1st Franklin Financial of Newnan will be at each of the designated Coweta County drop-off locations on their selected days of the event, Monday through Wednesday.

Below is the 1st Franklin Financial schedule for Coweta locations.
