Vernon Rice Memorial Holiday Turkey Program

The Vernon Rice Memorial Holiday Turkey Program donates fresh Thanksgiving baskets to local families and individuals in need through the St. Anthony of Padua Church. The program began in 1993 when Vernon Rice, a maintenance mechanic for the Johns Hopkins University Homewood campus vehicle fleet, wanted to find a way to provide holiday dinners to families in difficult economic circumstances.
