THANKSGIVING DINNER OUTREACH 2025
Each Thanksgiving, T&E Care works with the community to provide a Thanksgiving meal for about ten local families. We are grateful to partner with HomeCooked in Paoli and the Amana Foundation for this outreach.
We collect turkeys, turkey pans (disposable pans are acceptable!), and homemade pumpkin bread, and ask for sponsors for the Thanksgiving dinner fixings and grocery items that the families cannot obtain at local food pantries. The cost to sponsor a family for Thanksgiving Dinner is $85. Sponsorship of non-perishable grocery items is $100.
Turkeys, turkey pans, and loaves of homemade pumpkin bread will be collected on Tuesday, November 25th from 2:30-3:30pm at the Gilroy residence at 311 Berwyn-Baptist Road in Berwyn.
We encourage the community to consider joining this outreach program with other family members, neighbors, or friends to help sponsor a T&E Care family for the Thanksgiving holiday. Sharing the cost (and the reward) of sponsorship is a great way to keep this outreach manageable for all, and to lend support while continuing to build the strong bonds of our T&E community.
THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO HAS SIGNED-UP TO PARTICIPATE!

HOLIDAY FOOD DRIVE 2025
Separate from the Holiday Drive for gifts and the Thanksgiving Dinner Outreach, the Holiday Food Drive helps supply groceries to families in our community and a prepared holiday meal for them to enjoy. The groceries and meal are supplemented with bags of fresh produce graciously donated by the Amana Foundation.
There will be 3 ways you can support this drive:
Option One: Purchase a bag of requested/listed grocery items to drop-off
Option Two: Sponsor a holiday meal from HomeCooked
Option Three: Sponsor a dessert from Nothing Bundt Cakes
The sign-up for the Holiday Food Drive will be available in early December.
Please contact Sondra Zalewski, Karen Seifert, or Stacy Stone, the chairmen for this event, at holidaydinner@tecare.org with any questions. Thank you!
