Yesterday, Joanne Taylor of Drake Cooper posted this message as a challenge on Twitter:
challenging you guys to help round up 40 turkeys! Bring a frozen turkey to Drake Cooper this Friday am and we will take them to the foodbank
Helping out the Idaho Food Bank is a worthwhile cause, so I’ll bite. If you’d like to get involved, here’s what you need to do:
Their goal is 40 turkeys, but I think this crowd can do better. 50? 60? 100? Who knows. For those of you who have wanted to see the new Drake Cooper office space, here’s a chance to do it.
And, for those who are outside of the Boise area, or can’t make it on Friday, you can still get involved (although you’ll miss out on the Friday morning treats). Just order one online by the 20th and have it delivered to them.
