Brown & Brown’s Turkey Drive seeks to help feed hungry residents
October 30, 2025
With local food banks trying to help more hungry people, Whatcom County residents and businesses may again help their neighbors in need by supporting the 14th-annual Turkey Drive conducted by Brown & Brown Insurance Services.
Brown & Brown’s Turkey Drive is scheduled Sept. 24-Nov. 12 to help local families struggling with higher costs of food and other necessities. Brown & Brown Insurance Services in Lynden is collecting cash, check and online donations to purchase turkeys and chickens for those in need within our community.
The first $2,000 in donations will be matched by Brown & Brown Insurance Services, which is celebrating its 100th anniversary in Lynden. Donors will receive recognition on Brown & Brown Lynden’s Facebook page and office windows. Brown & Brown teammates also are supporting the Turkey Drive with internal fundraisers at their Lynden and Seattle offices.
Turkeys and chickens will be distributed to families in need by the Whatcom County Food Bank Network (www.bellinghamfoodbank.org) and Lynden-based Project Hope Food Bank (www.projecthopelynden.org). Last year’s Turkey Drive donated 4,510 pounds of turkey and chicken, which were given to local families in need. An average of 262 families have been helped during each of the past 13 years of the Turkey Drive.
“Our food banks support over 20% of Whatcom County’s population,” said Bobbi Green, a Brown & Brown teammate who has been leading the Brown & Brown Turkey Drive since its inception 14 years ago. “Before we gather for holiday feasts, we urge you to join many other individuals, groups, churches and businesses in supporting the Turkey Drive.”
Checks may be made payable to Brown & Brown and mailed to 501 Front St., Lynden, WA 98264. Checks and cash may be dropped off at the office between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. weekdays.
