Help Vulnerable Families at Thanksgiving
Project Self-Sufficiency is soliciting assistance for hundreds of low-income families who need a little extra help this season, by asking area residents and organizations to donate traditional Thanksgiving food, or to donate funds towards the purchase of food. Donors are invited to sponsor a family for only $50 or to make a contribution of their choice; contributions made in honor of a loved one are also encouraged. The non-profit agency is gearing up to distribute complete Thanksgiving dinners to approximately 500 local families this year, so monetary donations are particularly needed. Individuals and families who need help at Thanksgiving are invited to call Project Self-Sufficiency at 973-940-3500. The agency will gratefully receive pumpkin or apple pies; canned vegetables, including yams and cranberry sauce; dinner rolls; gravy; stuffing and mashed potato mixes. Contributions, or notification of the intent to contribute, are request...
