CHICAGO (WLS) -- The holidays will be happier for hundreds of Chicagoans thanks to Saint Sabina Church and Spike Lee.

The film maker donated more than 1,000 turkeys which were handed out Saturday at the South Side church.

Father Michael Pfleger said Lee has continued to reach out to the Englewood community since he shot his movie "Chi-Raq" in 2014.
