Thanksgiving Meal Needs List

A big thanks to all of the volunteers and donors who came out to help us serve over 1000 men, women, and children a hot Thanksgiving meal on Tuesday the 25th. We had over 200 roasted and sliced turkeys donated as well as all the stuffing, yams, green beans, and cranberry sauce to make a complete Thanksgiving meal.

Despite the economic downturn the mood here was generally joyful. We try to make Loaves & Fishes an oasis for our homeless guests from the hard reality of not having a home. As people entered our dining room they were greeted by the smell of hot turkey and yams, a room full of fall decorations, and the smiling welcoming faces of our volunteers. For those with nothing, just a hot meal and warm seat can bring incredible joy and hope.

While our Thanksgiving meal is over we still need your help to cover the costs and keep feeding hungry people everyday. Please make a donation right now.
