Ellen DeGeneres is the official spokesperson for Farm Sanctuary’s 2010 Adopt-A-Turkey Project. For a one time donation of $30, anyone can sponsor a turkey at Farm Sanctuary’s New York of California shelter, receive an adoption certificate, a full color photo and information about their new family member.

“Save a life this Thanksgiving, and join me in starting a new tradition by adopting a turkey instead of eating one through Farm Sanctuary’s Adopt-A-Turkey Project,” DeGeneres said.

Some of this year’s adoptable turkeys include Velma, Daphne, Kima, Harley, Reese and Jordan.

The sanctuary’s Adopt-A-Turkey Project has rescued over 1,000 turkeys since its inception in 1986, placing them in loving homes through the Turkey Express Adoption event, while educating consumers on the plight of the birds in crowded factory farms and slaughterhouses.
