The event has been a tradition for four years, according to store owner Faddi Aref.
Dozens of volunteers spent their morning Monday handing out 500 turkeys in front of Mike’s Furniture on Memorial Boulevard in Port Arthur.
The event has been a tradition for four years, according to store owner Faddi Aref.
“Being from Port Arthur, I just wanted to give back to the community,” Aref said.
“While 250 is a lot, we just saw a greater need,” he said. “We bumped it up to 500, and we also do 500 bags of side items like mashed potatoes, mac and cheese and other stuff.
We also have bags with paper towels, body wash and laundry detergent.”
Aref said he feels blessed to be able to give back.
