Welcome to the TENACIOUS TURKEYS, we’re glad you agree that Turkey is the star of Thanksgiving and the star of Gobble Games this year!

At Blue Cross & Blue Shield of Rhode Island (BCBSRI), we’re not only passionate about potatoes, turkey, stuffing, and pie, we want Rhode Islanders to have access to all of the foods we know they need for health and well-being.

The Rhode Island Community Food Bank provides nutritious meals to Rhode Islanders facing food insecurity, which is why BCBSRI has been a dedicated supporter for more than a decade. BlueAngel volunteers have supported food access through initiatives like Step Up for Hunger Challenge, Summer Snackdown, Blue across Rhode Island, and Gobble Games.

This year, the Rhode Island Food Bank continues to face high demand, delivering 15 million pounds of food and supplying 150 food distribution sites across RI. The Food Bank’s supply network allows them to leverage our donations and purchase food in bulk in order to get the most food to the most people. Donating funds is the most effective way to support the Food Bank so they can directly purchase what is most needed.

Gobble Games will also give us the opportunity to answer the all-important question: What is BCBSRI’s favorite Thanksgiving Food? When you donate to support the RI Community Food Bank, you cast your vote for your favorite food. Invite your friends and family to join you in this healthy competition and check back to make sure your team is in the lead!
