Thanksgiving Dinners 2019 – we are cooking again!
Again this year, on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving (November 27), T&E Care volunteers will be preparing Thanksgiving dinners for ten local families. These are families who really struggle and we like to help them know that they can be thankful they live in T/E!! We have often received some of the most heartfelt thanks due to this program, so it really does touch home. Thanks again to St. Luke Lutheran Church for hosting this event – what a wonderful partner on this project! Thanks to Cindy Gilroy, Danyll Lockett, and Laura Pratt for again working to coordinate this program.
Please contact us at turkeys@tecare.org with any questions. We have all the volunteers we will need for our two shifts – 10:30-12 and 12:30-2. If you are coming please remember that children are welcome but they must be at least 10 years old (lots of sharp knives and hot stoves/ovens), AND volunteers younger than 18 MUST have a parent accompany them.
At this point we are all filled for our food donation requests as well. The December Holiday Food Drive will be starting soon, so just watch for that. THANKS!!!

Holiday Food Drive 2019 – awesome!
Again this holiday season we supported ten local families with lots of food for their special holiday dinners. We collected food for the drive on Thursday, December 19 (4:30 to 7:30) and Friday, December 20 (9 to noon) at St. Luke Lutheran Church (203 N. Valley Forge Rd, Devon). Then the food went out for distribution. Everyone was so very appreciative! Thanks to Sondra Zalewski, Karen Seifert, and Laura Pratt for their efforts coordinating this important program and MANY thanks to all who donated food for the event. A special shout out again to the Amana Foundation for contributing many many bags of fresh produce for these 10 families. It’s an amazing partnership!
One mom said after she received her food: I’m am in complete awe and full of tears as I put all of these delicious goodies away!! Your generosity helps so much.
