Organization Details:
To provide Thanksgiving Dinners for needy families in New York City.
Description and/or History:
We provide a complete boxed Thanksgiving Dinners to families supported by Women In Need, Catholic Charities, the Salvation Army and other organizations that house needy families. We have gone from feeding 50 families 5 years ago, to feeding 2000 this year. Our goal for next year is 2050 families. Volunteers help pack the boxes and help deliver the boxes in groups. The organization provides vans to drive the volunteers to housing locations.
The organization was started by Robert LoCascio and his employees at Live Person in New York City five years ago to deliver Thanksgiving dinners to the needy families in New York.
