Community Hosts Warm Thanksgiving Feast
Reading
Shirley Mease made a free meal for Thanksgiving. The weather was bad, so few people came that year. Her family gave the meals to homes and saw that people needed help.
Mease works with the school system and sees families in need. Many kids only eat at school, she says. In 2009, they gave 100 meals, and this year they plan to give 700.
Everyone is welcome to the meal. No one will ask them any questions. Donations help to give the free meals to those who need them.
Mease and her family have been getting ready for weeks. They got food and picked up donations for cooking. They started cooking at the school with lots of food on Wednesday.
SNAP is working again, but it will take time to help. Food banks are very busy now. Mease thinks this is the time to help people more than ever.
