So many struggling Tri-State families will go hungry this Thanksgiving without your help. Your ERM’s 100th annual Gobbler Gathering Thanksgiving food basket giveaway will take place on November 23, 2021 – and your support is urgently needed. Your generous gift today will ensure every family in need who attends can take home a 60-pound basket filled with delicious food for their Thanksgiving holiday. In addition to making a heartfelt gift, here are 5 other easy ways you can get involved in this year’s Gobbler Gathering:

• Host a food drive to collect needed Gobbler Gathering food items. You can drop off food donations at ERM’s main campus (500 E Walnut St, Evansville, IN 47713) up until Friday, November 19, or call us to make arrangements to pick up food collections of more than 500 items.

• Help sponsor this year’s Gobbler Gathering with your generous gift of $200, $500, $1,000, or $2,500 to help cover the general operating expenses for this massive celebration. If you are interested in being a sponsor, please contact Victoria Flaherty, our Director of Donor Relations at 812.421.3800 or victoria.flaherty@ermstaff.org
