On November 22, the Urban League of Metropolitan St. Louis distributed 2,000 free turkeys to needy area residents thanks to a major sponsorship by TIAA, a financial services provider, and Schnucks Supermarkets. For the past 20 years, the Urban League previously partnered with the St. Louis Rams on the Turkey Giveaway before the team moved to Los Angeles earlier this year. However, thanks to a new partnership with TIAA, the League was able to continue the Thanksgiving tradition.
“ We are very thankful to TIAA for agreeing to support the Turkey Giveaway which has helped thousands of needy families have Thanksgiving Dinner over the years,” said Michael P. McMillan, President and CEO of the Urban League of Metropolitan St. Louis.
