A man in Palm Beach County is helping those who are unable to put food on the table this Thanksgiving.

Lawrence Hardnett, known to many as "Larry the Turkey Guy," made a large purchase at a Golden Corral in Royal Palm Beach thanks to donors.

“If each person would take the time out and just try to help someone else out, it would be a better place. And then we won’t have to lean so much on other organizations. We would just be able to help one another," Hardnett said.

Over the past 15 years, he has been able to provide more than 15,000 meals to families in need.

This year Hardnett gave away more than 1,000 Thanksgiving dinners.
