Albany, N.Y. – In an effort to show appreciation for the sacrifices of active duty service members, veterans and their families, Tully Rinckey PLLC and Hannaford Supermarkets once again provided free turkeys to active duty and retired military personnel this Thanksgiving through the sixth annual “Turkeys for Veterans” program.

Officials from Tully Rinckey PLLC and Hannaford Supermarkets hand delivered the turkeys to active duty service members and veterans at the law firm’s headquarters at 441 New Karner Road in Albany midday Monday.

Additionally, Tully Rinckey PLLC and Hannaford provided turkeys to feed 32 veterans at the annual Thanksgiving dinner at the Albany Housing Coalition. The Albany Housing Coalition assists veterans through programs designed to prevent and solve homelessness.

This Thanksgiving marks the sixth year for the “Turkeys for Veterans” program. Since the program’s inception in 2009, Tully Rinckey PLLC has provided the Thanksgiving table centerpiece for the family members of hundreds of active duty and retired military personnel in the greater Capital Region.

“This Thanksgiving, we are once again pleased to serve those who have done so much to serve our country,” said Tully Rinckey PLLC Founding Partner Mathew B. Tully, Esq., a decorated U.S. Army veteran and Purple Heart recipient. “We appreciate the sacrifices of active duty service members and veterans, and hope the turkeys we are providing remind them on Thanksgiving how grateful we are for their service.”

“All of us at Hannaford are honored to once again work with Tully Rinckey PLLC to offer a sense of comfort, home and warmth to those who so selflessly dedicate their lives to serving our country,” said Hannaford Supermarkets Community Relations Specialist Amy White. “We look forward to serving those who serve this Thanksgiving.”

Tully Rinckey PLLC has a long-standing record of service with the military. Throughout its seven offices, the firm employs more than 50 attorneys, with a large group of them being veterans of the U.S. Army, Air Force, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, and Navy.
