"FeedMore WNY deeply appreciates the partnership of the Buffalo Sabres, Audacy, Tops Friendly Markets and our Western New York community members through Turkeys for Tickets. This drive helps FeedMore WNY ensure we can distribute highly sought after turkeys to our neighbors experiencing food insecurity throughout our four-county service area of Erie, Niagara, Cattaraugus and Chautauqua counties. The holiday season brings an increased demand for food assistance in our community, but this year, the need is even greater. If you are in a position to donate, we encourage you to participate in the Turkeys for Tickets drive to provide hope and hearty holiday meals for our neighbors in need."
