For the fourth year in a row, Armand’s Hearing Center next to Books-a-Million in Bradenton will be handing out free turkeys to help the needy at holiday time.

Armand’s 2017 Free Turkey Giveaway is scheduled to begin at 9 a.m. Nov. 18, at the hearing aid center, 4229 14th St. W., Bradenton, according to a company news release.

The giveaway will last until all the birds are dispensed, the release adds.

Last year, Armand’s handed out a free turkey to more than 500 families.

“God continues to bless us beyond what we could have imagined,” the release states. “We are hoping to reach a lot more families.”

Armand’s patients have asked the company how they can help and so the firm has set up an account through youcaring.com for donations.

Members of the community can also stop by the center on 14th Street West and drop off donations, the release states.

Information: 941-748-9800.
