Once again, we are preparing for our annual
holiday program. We project that we will need to distribute
approximately 1,400 complete dinners this year,
with the first of the baskets being distributed
NOVEMBER 1. UPDATE: Thanks to a very
generous corporate donation, we have nearly
reached our goal for the number of items needed
to meet the requests for Thanksgiving baskets.
However, we still need those birds, and with a
record number of new families needing
assistance, we have a great need for the foods
listed below. Please consider these items as you
shop.
FINANCIAL contributions are always welcome so
we can purchase our most needed items at reduced
cost. Click
HERE donate now!
Any help you can give – food or $$$ – will be
greatly appreciated.

We will begin accepting turkeys and hams on
October 29.
