Young Women's League & Walter Stewart's Market team up for annual turkey drive

The Young Women's League of New Canaan and Walter Stewart's Market will once again team up to donate turkeys to Person-to-Person's annual Thanksgiving Dinner Drive. The dinners will be distributed by Person-to-Person to families in need.

By donating back T-Bills balances earned, from Thursday November 4th through November 7th, customers and Walter Stewart's can together reach the goal of purchasing more than 100 turkeys to complete the Thanksgiving dinners.

Those unfamiliar with the Walter Stewart's T-Bill loyalty program may ask any cashier to help establish a personal T-Bill account. More information may also be obtained at their website www.stewartsmarket.com.

 Person-to-Person is a nonprofit, private social service organization founded more than 37 years ago. The agency serves more than 12,000 people annually in the greater Stamford area, including New Canaan, by providing emergency food, clothing, furniture, financial assistance, scholarships and counseling services. It is housed at St. Luke's Parish in Darien and has a professional staff and volunteer corps of more than 400. Through out the year Walter Stewart's Market has a food drop off box where donors can continue to donate.

 The Young Women's League of New Canaan conducts several clothing and food drives every year, as well as recruits volunteers from its membership, to help Person-to-Person's efforts.
