Another year of giving thanks and giving back to the community, and I couldn’t be more proud or more happy with the city of Killeen. It was the annual Steve Harvey Turkey Giveaway, where 75 people were able to receive full Thanksgiving dinners.

Who Made This Event Happen?

Big shoutout to the good people at Killeen Certified, located at 3404 E. Central Texas Expressway, Townsquare Media’s sales department, our morning and afternoon DJ,  Piggie Harris. I love this event—honestly, that’s the only way I know how to describe it. I’m a big believer in ]the city of Killeen has never just been a house to me; it has always been my home. And when we get opportunities like this, why not take full advantage of it?

Meet Josh Smith of Killeen Certified and What Part Does He Play in This Event

One of the operators and managers of Killeen Certified, Josh Smith, has been doing so many things behind the scenes to take care of this city. I finally just asked him, “Why do you do all this for the community?” No offense—yes, a car dealership provides a service because people need to buy cars—but that doesn’t mean you have to be the go-to people for community care.His answer wasn’t just elegant; it made perfect sense. He made it very clear: “Yes, we take care of the city when it comes to cars, and because of that, the city takes care of us. So when we can give back, we will give back. We have to do it together.”

Another Successful Steve Harvey Giveaway!

It never gets old seeing the smiling faces of people in our city being taken care of. I’ve been a Killeen native my whole life, and if I’m being honest, I’ve seen organizations and businesses volunteer to do beautiful events like this—but when you’re actually a part of one, the feeling is just different.

Happy Holidays, Central Texas!
