What is Super Saturday?

In the three days leading up to Thanksgiving, St. Mary's will provide nutritious meals to more than 12,000 individuals and families struggling with hunger during the holiday. This is possible due to the support of volunteers who help St. Mary's collect turkeys and food items during the Super Saturday Turkey Drive.

Volunteer groups will be stationed at 28 Albertsons and Safeway locations to collect turkeys, Thanksgiving meal items and cash donations from donors as they enter and exit the store. A St. Mary's staff member and truck will be on site with all materials, signage and donation collection boxes. Friends and family members (including children) are welcome to help!
