Anaheim, California-based Northgate González Market delivered turkey vouchers, food and cash donations to more than 5,500 families this holiday season.

“The upcoming holidays are a time for families to come together around the dinner table to share a warm meal, laughter, and love,” said Oscar González, Northgate Market co-president. “We want to thank our community partners, Hyundai and Oportun and others, who joined us to make this holiday season a little bit brighter for many families.”

A tradition started many years ago by the González family, Northgate Market coordinated turkey and food giveaways at community events in Huntington ParkLos AngelesSan DiegoSanta AnaParamount and other cities.

“Hyundai is committed to making progress for humanity, and this begins with basic human needs like food and nutrition,” said Brandon Ramirez, director, corporate social responsibility and external relations, Hyundai Motor America.
