Thanksgiving foods

People will have a chance to come out and give ahead of Thanksgiving as part of the Thanks 4 Giving Food Drive.

The drive, put on by the Food Bank of Northern Nevada and Cumulus Media, is set for Friday, November 13, from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. at Walmart on Kietzke Lane.

Donors can drop frozen turkeys or fixings in the parking lot in front of the store, and donations will be accepted in a drive-through format, so participants don’t even have to get out of their car.

The following items are the most needed for donation:

  • Frozen Turkeys (must be frozen)

  • Dressing/Stuffing

  • Canned Vegetables

  • Canned Fruits

  • Canned Yams

  • Gravy Mixes

  • Cornbread Mixes

  • Instant Mashed Potatoes

  • Cream Soups

  • Fried Onions

  • Rice – White, brown, or wild

  • Canned Cranberry Sauce

Also needed are cereal, pasta, beans, canned soups, stews, chili, and canned tuna.
