Turkey & Produce Giveaways Provided a Bountiful Thanksgiving for 600-plus Families

 For the ninth year, Virtua continued its favorite Thanksgiving tradition: giving away frozen turkeys and fresh produce to local families. Staff members volunteered their time to distribute the holiday meal items at Virtua Willingboro Hospital and Virtua's Camden Campus on Atlantic Avenue.
Virtua provided a combined 660 12- to 14-pound birds and bags of celery, onions, carrots, sweet potatoes, and Idaho potatoes at the two sites. This year's distribution brought the total number of turkeys given by Virtua to 7,285 since the initiative began in 2017.

The giveaways are made possible thanks to the generosity of Virtua pulmonologist Eric Sztejman, MD, and many other philanthropic supporters.
