Thanksgiving came early for 7000 people in Baltimore Tuesday night.
The 53 families foundation held its annual turkey dinner.
Families gathered at the Baltimore convention center for a free dinner and fun and to catch a glimpse of some Ravens players.
Former Ravens linebacker Jameel McClain is the founder of the foundation.
Mcclain says this event started with just 53 people.
“It's hope; it's familiarity; it's knowing that you can see the Terrence Westers of the world, the Lamar Jacksons, and everything that they've been through; they've been you at one point,” says McClain.
“So the goal is to continue to inspire, and with a little bit of inspiration, now we got opportunity.”
This marks the 15th year of the turkey dinner.
