About the event
At Chicago Emerging Stars, we believe that community isn’t built through words, it's built through action, care, and connection.
That’s why this Thanksgiving, we’re proud to host our 2nd Annual Thanksgiving Turkey Giveaway, where we’ll be distributing over 300 frozen Butterball turkeys to families across Chicago. No registration, no forms, no barriers, just love in action.
Our mission has always been to guide youth toward purpose, possibility, and power and this event is one way we live that mission out loud. It’s about showing up, giving back, and reminding our city that hope is still alive, especially when times are tough.
Families do not need to pre-register to receive a turkey.
RSVPs are accepted but not required; they simply help us share updates and spread the word.
Please note that turkeys will be distributed on a first come, first served basis while supplies last.
