Operation Turkey Drop

🦃❤️ Happy Thanksgiving from Operation Turkey Drop ❤️🦃

On this day of gratitude, we want to wish everyone a very Happy Thanksgiving and take a moment to reflect on the incredible impact of this year’s Operation Turkey Drop.

Thanks to the generosity, teamwork, and big hearts across our community. We received a couple more donations and raised an incredible $6,518.96 this year to support those in need.

Because of you:
• Donations went to the Central Pennsylvania Food Bank, including the individual winner Trevor C’s
• ZDC’s winning facility entry directed funds to Loudoun Hunger Relief
• Donations to NATCA Eastern Region local food banks.

We are truly thankful to be able to turn a fun, lighthearted event into something that makes a real difference in our local communities. This is what aviation, teamwork, and community spirit are all about.

Thank you to everyone who participated, donated, supported, and cheered us on. We couldn’t do this without you.

🧡 Looking ahead with gratitude, and we already excited for next year! 🦃✈️
