Curacao has partnered with Viking Law to Bring Free Thanksgiving Meals to 425 Families in LA in this Year's "Curacao Turkey Giveaway"


LOS ANGELES, Nov. 16, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Curacao, the largest Hispanic-centric retailer on the West Coast serving diverse communities in Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Tucson and Phoenix, has just announced a partnership with Viking Law, a CA-based firm headed by Alex Djarbekian. Both Curacao and the firm ??which has handled and litigated complex and often high-profile legal cases??, will bring full Thanksgiving meals to 425 low-income Latino families across Los Angeles, which is battling one of the major wildfires burning in California.

Through this partnership, and for the 15th year in a row, Curacao continues strengthening its commitment to millions of Hispanic families and millennials across Southern California by donating hundreds of turkeys in an event quickly becoming one of the city's Thanksgiving largest meal distributions.

Low-income and underserved families will be able to celebrate one of the country's top holidays by receiving hot meals and sides worth nearly $50 each. Each 6-person meal package will come with a whole turkey (22 pounds each), 6 servings of whole russet potatoes, one can of gravy, canned corn, wild rice, broth, carrots, cranberries, salad and stuffing.

"We understand how important family values are to the Latino community, and none of them should ever have to miss a special occasion due to a lack of financial resources," said Ariela Nerubay Curacao's CMO. "That is why, as part of the Thanksgiving spirit, Curacao is extremely proud to serve its community on this special date by providing healthy meals to hundreds of Latino families who, otherwise, would not be able to join this celebration."

Alex Djarbekian, head of Viking Law Firm, said, "We are honored to partner with Curacao to make it possible for hundreds of Latino children, their parents and their friends to gather around the Thanksgiving table. It's one of the many ways in which our company is committed to the well-being of this community."

Families will be able to pick up their meals on Tuesday, November 20th, from 7PM to 9PM, at the parking lot of the store located on 1605 W. Olympic Boulevard, Los Angeles 90015, California.

Meals will be provided only to those recipients who have previously obtained a voucher or a ticket number by texting PAVO to 474747. The voucher or ticket number must be presented in order to receive the meal. 

The "Curacao Turkey Giveaway" initiative is one of the multiple programs created by the Curacao Foundation ?a nonprofit organization founded in 2002 by retailer Curacao?, to support the Latino community during the holiday season. Also, as part of its continued efforts and demonstrated commitment to the Hispanic community, Curacao will donate a percentage of all Black Friday sales to the Curacao Foundation.
