Breakthru Arizona, E. & J. Gallo Winery, Treasury Wine Estates Support Nation’s Largest One-Day Turkey Drive
Nov. 23, 2016
In the state of Arizona, 1 in 6 people struggle with hunger, and helping address this issue in our community is a cause Breakthru Arizona is proud to support – especially during the holidays. Turkey Tuesday, an Arizona Thanksgiving staple, is a yearly hunger program we’re excited to support.
“Turkey Tuesday, now in its 23rd year, is an Arizona tradition,” said Turkey Tuesday’s Trey Basha. “It’s the nation’s largest single-day turkey drive, and we are honored and humbled to be a part of it. We’re especially grateful for our wonderful vendor partners like Breakthru Beverage, other area businesses and the thousands of generous customers statewide whose contributions help feed the hungry this holiday season.”
On Tuesday, all Arizona Bashas’ locations collected frozen turkeys and monetary donations to help St. Vincent de Paul provide Thanksgiving meals for local families in need. Breakthru, along with many of our brand partners, including E. & J. Gallo Winery, are honored to support the food drive. Gallo, in particular, made a very generous donation of $5,000 to Turkey Tuesday.
“The E. & J. Gallo Winery family is proud to partner with Bashas’ during Turkey Tuesday,” said E. & J. Gallo Winery’s Jeff Cook. “There is a growing hunger issue in Arizona, and we’re committed to helping families in our communities–especially during the holiday months.”
Other Breakthru Arizona brand partner efforts include:
- Treasury Wine Estates: $3,000 donation
- Deep Eddy: $500 donation
- Banfi and Excelsior are donating a monetary portion of each case sold in November.
We’re proud to support Turkey Tuesday, and proud to partner with brands that are passionate about the important issues that affect the good families in our community.
Happy Thanksgiving from everyone here at Breakthru Arizona!
