So yesterday Forney Education Foundation opened the Turkey Drive sign up list to the families that had been identified by the school district as Economically Disadvantaged. Within 5 minutes all 300 spots were filled. As of yesterday there were 542 families on the waitlist. Every family on this list has AT LEAST one child in Forney ISD. We are talking about children going without food, and as two former teachers (running the Chamber) that is devastating. If you are looking for a worthy cause to give to this year, please consider donating to our Annual Turkey Drive (Forney Chamber of Commerce & Forney Education Foundation) . 100% of proceeds go to feeding LOCAL families a full Thanksgiving meal.

If we raise more, we WILL feed more.

Donations can be made here: https://checkout.square.site/merchant/WDY080TZ6TR3M/checkout/XJM7KBD4L5G6UUNVBOIXKL22?fbclid=IwY2xjawGE2gtleHRuA2FlbQIxMAABHVDb37fG4FXtlCP3QN1TyuNHCGz1zgSr2MNYrDtMV0bZN8Rm8WRA5Un5jQ_aem_4764Y8S9CqWUJONcIXv2Zg

We will also be at Kroger (500 Marketplace Blvd, Forney, TX 75126) for the next two weekends between 10am-6pm trying to encourage donations of side dishes, turkey pans, etc. If you'd like to come to Kroger Forney, and purchase some corn, green beans, stuffing, gravy mix, roasting pans, etc. to leave with us as you exit the store, that would also be incredibly appreciated!

The Forney Police Department is excited to introduce "Citizen Connect," a web-based platform designed to enhance transparency and community engagement. This innovative tool provides residents access to incident data through an interactive map, highlighting our department's activities. Users can view up-to-date incident information, customize date ranges, and filter specific incidents. For officer safety, all calls are delayed by at least 60 minutes.

The platform's features include incident filtering, data grouping for multiple incidents at one location, and a heat map to identify high-incident areas. Residents can customize notifications for specific events and receive daily, weekly, or monthly updates via email. Registration is free, offering full access to custom alert features.

"We are happy to provide our residents with a tool that provides more transparency. The Forney Police Department encourages all residents to explore this new tool, stay informed, and actively participate in maintaining the safety and security of our community," said Police Chief Carrie White.
