This Thanksgiving season McIntyre Law is helping Oklahoma families in need by donating 5,000 turkeys to feed the hungry.
Oklahoma (PRWEB) November 11, 2015
Noble McIntyre and his law firm McIntyre Law is participating in distributing over 25 tons of turkeys (or 5,000 turkeys) for the 6th year in a row to families who struggle with hunger. Once again, the firm has partnered with the Regional Food Bank of Oklahoma and 75 other Oklahoma law firm members of the Oklahoma Association for Justice, an organization for which Noble McIntyre serves as president.
A group of lawyers co-spearheaded by Noble McIntyre called “Lawyers Fighting Hunger” has raised more than $80,000 this year to provide turkeys to families in need in Oklahoma City, Norman, El Reno, Mustang and Tulsa.
Turkeys will be given out one per family on a first-come, first-served basis until they are gone. There will be free hamburgers, hot dogs, bottled water and soda available to all who attend the giveaway event. McIntyre Law is the Official Review Sponsor for the University of Oklahoma Football team. The University of Oklahoma has advised that their Cheerleader squad will be present at the offices of McIntyre Law to assist in the distribution of turkeys and other festivities. Additionally the Local 157 of the Oklahoma City Firefighters will once again be on hand to hand out turkeys. Face painting for the children will be available as well as a concert lead by Oklahoma music artist Blake Bolerjack.
One in six Oklahomans has insufficient access to food, which makes Oklahoma one of the hungriest states in the nation. That means that wintertime presents an extra set of challenges to many Oklahomans, who often have to choose between food and utilities during the coldest months of the year. 72 percent of the Oklahoma Food Bank’s clients are in this situation, which is why the team at McIntyre Law feels the urgency and importance of serving a hot, satisfying, nutritious holiday meal to those who can use it most.
Turkeys will be given beginning at the times listed below and will continue until all of the turkeys have been distributed:
Oklahoma City: Nov. 19th, begins at 10 a.m.; McIntyre Law offices, 8601 S. Western Ave.
Norman: Nov. 20th, begins at 11 a.m.; Bernstein Law Office, 104 W. Gray St.
