Look out for Jay's Sleigh coming to you across the Island, part of CBC P.E.I.'s Feed A Family campaign.

Maritime Bus and T3 Transit are donating the use of a bus for this year's food drive, which will see CBC's Jay Scotland tour the Island collecting donations of turkeys and money for people in need. The food bank's goal is to receive 1,800 to 1,900 turkeys to distribute in Christmas hampers.

"It's extremely important to our neighbours and our community, there's people struggling out there and anybody could use a hand this time of year," said Mike MacDonald, manager of the Upper Room Food Bank.

"Any donation, it's not too small or too big."
