State Senator Dale Fowler (R-Harrisburg) joined forces with Meridian Illinois and Heaven’s Kitchen to provide 250 free hams and turkeys to those in need ahead of Thanksgiving. The partnership between Meridian and Heaven’s Kitchen aims to support the community during the holiday season.

Senator Fowler expressed his gratitude for the collaboration, stating, “This partnership between Meridian and Heaven’s Kitchen is crucial to the people we serve and is extremely heartwarming as we approach the holiday season. We have created a system where those who show up for a free ham or turkey from Meridian can also receive a hot meal from Heaven’s Kitchen.”

The distribution event took place at the First Presbyterian Church Annex, where 125 hams and 125 turkeys were handed out to families in the 59th District. Senator Fowler expressed his pride in being able to give back to his constituents, saying, “I am just so thankful to have the opportunity to serve the great constituents of the 59th District. Thanksgiving and the holiday season is a time to give back and lend a helping hand, and I’m proud to know that through this event, we have done just that.”

Meridian Illinois Managed Care Plans initiated the statewide program of free ham and turkey giveaways leading up to Thanksgiving week. Meridian Health Plan of Illinois, Inc., a subsidiary of Centene Corporation, provides managed care services to families, children, seniors, and individuals with complex medical needs. Their comprehensive services aim to support lifelong health and wellness.

This collaborative effort between Senator Fowler, Meridian Illinois, and Heaven’s Kitchen demonstrates the commitment to community welfare during the holiday season. By distributing free hams and turkeys to those in need, they strive to make Thanksgiving a more joyous occasion for families facing economic challenges.
