Army of volunteers hard at work cooking up Thanksgiving dinner for hundreds

In Durham, volunteers worked overnight to get ready for Durham Rescue Mission's an annual holiday tradition.

The organization cooks 140 turkeys as part of their Thanksgiving feast and gives away warm clothing to those in need.

Across town, volunteers at the Raleigh Rescue Mission have been working hard on Thanksgiving as well.

For the 11th year in a row volunteers will be delivering hundreds of meals to the elderly and low income.

"Gobbles to Go" uses about 100 volunteers to help prepare, package and deliver the turkey dinners.

ABC11 Together is also giving a helping hand Thursday to the Helping Hand Mission as they help feed people in need this holiday.

Donations help feed hundreds at the Newbern House on Rock Quarry Road in Raleigh.
