As the holiday season approaches, Central Coast Moving & Storage is ramping up its annual Thanksgiving support efforts by donating 500 turkeys to families in need across San Luis Obispo County. With a split of 75 % for North County and 25 % for South County, the company is delivering turkeys via its own moving trucks, insulated and handled with care to ensure fresh, reliable distribution. To learn more, contact Central Coast Moving & Storage at 805-441-4429.

The turkeys will be distributed at two hospital locations to make pick-up convenient for community members. In North County, families can collect turkeys on Thursday, November 20, from 4 to 6 p.m. at Adventist Health Twin Cities. In South County, distribution will take place on Friday, November 21, from 4 to 6 p.m. at Adventist Health Sierra Vista. To maintain quality and freshness, Central Coast Moving will deliver the turkeys using their own trucks, packed in insulated moving pads.

“At Central Coast Moving, giving back is part of who we are,” said Austin Yarborough, owner. “After seeing the difference we made last year, we’re proud to go bigger! Our 400 turkeys plus 100 from Adventist Health on the Central Coast mean many more families can gather around a worry-free meal this Thanksgiving.”

Volunteers from both Central Coast Moving and Adventist Health will help with logistics, greeting families, handing out turkeys and distributing community-resource flyers. “For many in our community, receiving a holiday meal brings warmth, dignity, and a heartfelt reminder that neighbors are looking out for one another,” Yarborough shared. “By organizing this large-scale turkey distribution, Central Coast Moving & Storage is ensuring that no matter where you live in San Luis Obispo County, you have the chance to gather, give thanks and be supported by your neighbors.”

This commitment to caring for neighbors resonates deeply with Adventist Health on the Central Coast. “Adventist Health on the Central Coast is honored to partner with Central Coast Moving & Storage to support families across our community this Thanksgiving,” said Meghan Shoven, Director of the Adventist Health Central Coast Foundation. “As a not-for-profit health system, we are committed to inspiring wholeness and hope through care that uplifts every person we serve. This effort reflects the heart of our mission—neighbors coming together to ensure every family feels supported, valued and cared for.”
