There is an unfortunate growing need over the past several years and Christians In Action continues to assist a record number of families to put food on the table. Thanksgiving is a time of giving thanks and bringing family together – no family should have to go without a special Thanksgiving meal. That’s why each year Christians In Action strives to ensure that every family is provided the means to enjoy a holiday meal.
The Olmsted Community Church will once again be hosting their annual Thanksgiving Food Drive (formerly known as the Turkey Hunt). The food drive is taking place on Sunday, November 17th, 2024. Door hangers will be distributed to homes between November 10-15th. All filled food donation bags will be collected on Sunday, November 17th between the hours of 1:00 and 4:00pm. If you would like to participate, please contact Seth Tomasch at 440-420-6657 or email at st29360@yahoo.com.
All collected food items will be delivered to the Christians In Action Food Pantry located in the basement of the Olmsted Halls City Hall building at 26100 Bagley Road by the Kids First parking lot. The food will be sorted at a later time and then distributed to registered families of the Olmsted Community food bank. Each family will receive groceries, a fresh Turkey, a pie and the remaining necessary staples to complete a home made Thanksgiving meal.
Christians In Action will be feeding approximately 105 less fortunate families this Thanksgiving! Thank you to this amazing community for your continued support!
(Pre-registration is required for families receiving assistance.)
