While the proverbial dust is still settling from another successful Thanksgiving Dinner-in-the-Park, we are already hard at work on our next community event: Christmas Dinner-in-the-Park. More details will be available on our website in the coming weeks. To tide you over until then, here are a few statistics and a link to photos from Thanksgiving Day.
- -Approximately 5,000 meals were served at on Thanksgiving Day to people who were homeless, senior citizens, alone at the holidays, or unable to afford a holiday meal.
- -Approximately 2,000 volunteers pre-registered online through our new pre-registration system.
- -350 turkeys were cleaned and cooked prior to Thanksgiving Day with more being donated the day of the event.
- -342 cars dropped off food at Central Park (many dropped off multiple food donations).
- -We couldn’t have done it without the incredible support of our community!
