The Los Angeles City Council is proclaiming Tuesday, January 22, 2019 as Justin Turner Day in Los Angeles in recognition of everything he does not only on the field for the Dodgers, but in the Los Angeles community.
We are both humbled and grateful to be recognized today in front of an extraordinary group.
This recognition is part of the Dodgers' 16th annual community service week, which will have the team and its players participate in a number of activities and events, Turner, 34, was a big contributor to the Dodgers' season, but the City Council has highlighted his charitable work, which includes the Justin Turner Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to helping homeless veterans and children in need.
