Every year the Mundelein After School Coalition partners with the Mundelein Police Department to host an annual Turkey Drive. They work together with the community to provide Thanksgiving dinners to local families who need additional support around the holidays.
To make the 2024 Turkey Drive successful we are asking members of our community to come together and assist with donating the items listed below. Any remaining donations are provided to local food pantries.
All donations can be dropped off at the Mundelein Police Department Main Lobby or Carl Sandburg Middle School.
Please have all donations in by: November 20
The Turkey Drive meal distribution will take place on Tuesday, November 26, 2024.
