The Center for Family Resources’ Thanks for Giving Event is in full swing, building family traditions for neighbors in need through a hearty, heart-filled Thanksgiving meal. There are several ways to get involved this year: Up until November 16, you and your family can shop and donate the items on the organization’s food list to support food needs on Thanksgiving and throughout the holiday season, or you can contribute with a financial donation, sign up to be a volunteer, purchase Thanks for Giving swag or simply help get the word out. Their goal is 1,000 families — is yours ready to help meet it.
