By Connie Mercer, Executive Director of HomeFront
This generous community has outdone itself this year! HomeFront and the hundreds of homeless and very low-income families we serve extend our warmest thanks to you all. You have allowed us to help make Thanksgiving special for over 1,500 needy families in our community.
Over 60 local businesses, 15 schools, 20 churches and hundreds of individuals donated Thanksgiving Food Baskets to HomeFront. We estimate that through this community-wide effort over 6,000 parents and children enjoyed a turkey dinner with all the trimmings this year. And best of all, they were able to do this at home!
My staff and I appreciate the caring and compassion of our community. We are always thankful and amazed at the outpouring of generosity from our neighbors and friends. Again, thank you on behalf of all the families we serve. We hope that everyone, especially all the people who donated their time and effort, have a wonderful and warm holiday season.
