Thanksgiving is right around the corner and as we give thanks for all our blessings, let's remember those who may not be so fortunate.

Local businesses and faith-based organizations are preparing for their Thanksgiving distributions. From food baskets to turkeys and even winter clothes, they are supporting those in the community who can't find the means to fund a Thanksgiving meal. If you're in need, visit one of the distributions happening this weekend.

Looking to donate or volunteer? Reach out to the business or organization directly for more details!

Let's do our part to make sure everyone has a warm meal this Thanksgiving season!
