Ella B. Scarborough Community Resource Center, at 430 Stitt Street, Charlotte, North Carolina, offers county services, Medicaid and Food & Nutrition Services, WIC, job searches, child support and more.
The center is hosting Saturdays on Stitt Turkey Giveaway on Saturday, November 22, 2025, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. At this event, Mecklenburg County will distribute 1,000 turkeys to local families.
The county is working with Nourish Up and Food Lion to provide turkeys and other food items for Thanksgiving meals, as well as information on additional resources .
This will be a drive-thru event.
Those interested in receiving a turkey must register for a specific time slot. Priority will go to individuals and families who receive SNAP benefits; eligibility will be checked before the event. Others who register but do not participate in SNAP will be placed on a waitlist and notified if there are extra turkeys available.
Double-Check Before You Head Out!
We make every effort to make sure that everything on Charlotte on the Cheap is 100% accurate.
However, sometimes things change without notice, and we are not always notified. It’s also possible that we can make a mistake.
Please verify all deals and events with the venue or organizer before you go.
