Another success in our mission to Feed, Educate, and Empower. Special Thanks to the Waste Management team, East Akron Neighborhood Development Corporation (EANDC), and Councilman Eric Garrett. Please understand that community success happens when we take progessive actions to uplift one another. To every person who lifted a finger, lifted their voice to tell someone, or even lifted a turkey to give to someone, we say thank you. Always remember, that no matter how big or how small the role you partake in, everything counts for something.. I encourage anyone who reads this message to do something good for someone this Christmas, even if it's a total stranger. Doesn't have to be money, it could be encouraging words, or even just a smile.

Feeling a deep sense of gratitide on this Thanksgiving day. Knowing that we've served hundreds of families this Thanksgiving with food to prepare a warm meal and gather with loved ones. Special thanks to all who came together with helping hands and hearts to help make this possible!
This Thanksgiving, we’re reminded of the power of community and the importance of sharing what we have with those around us. While many of us are fortunate to gather around a table filled with food, millions of families are facing hunger today. Let’s extend the spirit of gratitude and giving by coming together to ensure everyone has access to the meals they need. Whether it’s donating, volunteering, or raising awareness, your actions can make a difference. Together, we can help create a future where no one has to wonder where their next meal is coming from. 🧡 Wishing you a Thanksgiving filled with compassion and connection. #Thanksgiving #EndHunger #Gratitude #GiveBack
