Gretchen Whitmer stopped in Southwest Michigan Wednesday to help deliver Turkeys for Thanksgiving.

This all started Tuesday as Michigan's Governor was seen in Wayne County handing out Turkeys at Pastor Miles' food drive in Ecorse, Michigan.

Then, on the day before Thanksgiving, Big Gretch did her part in Kalamazoo, according to her official Twitter and Facebook account,

Continuing food delivery in Kalamazoo today. Thanks to everyone who’s finding ways to give back to their fellow Michiganders this holiday season!

 

Hunger is a serious problem in Kalamazoo according to Kalamazoo Loaves and Fishes,
