On Saturday, Nov. 19, DeKalb County Government will celebrate Thanksgiving Day 2022 by partnering with local faith leaders to distribute 5,000 boxes of 100 percent Georgia-grown fruits and vegetables, eggs, and chicken hindquarters.
Residents will receive one 20-pound box of food that will include a dozen fresh eggs, and a 10-lb. bag of chicken hindquarters. Residents also will receive cookies, fruit juice and cereal especially for children. “Skyrocketing food prices will be an unwelcome guest at Thanksgiving celebrations this year,” said DeKalb County CEO Michael Thurmond. Beginning at 9 a.m., rain or shine, 5,000 boxes of food will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis, at the following drive-through locations:
Mount Moriah Church will distribute FREE food from 10a.m. - 3:00p.m. on November 19th to help people impacted financially by the pandemic. We will also be administering Covid & Flu vaccinations. $100 Gift Card for first 100 COVID participants! Mount Moriah Church cares for you!
