It’s Turkey TIME!

Each year, as part of YESvember, Open Arms of Minnesota celebrates Thanksgiving by providing each client the opportunity to receive a wholesome turkey dinner to enjoy with their loved ones.

You can donate or even start your own Turkey Drive fundraiser and help us grow our community of supporters! This year’s goal is $168,000, our most ambitious goal ever!
