Annual Turkey Drive
(11/20)

This Thanksgiving, many of our neighbors in the Hudson Valley communities will gather with family and friends to enjoy a delicious meal and give thanks for their many blessings. Unfortunately, in those same communities,many of those less fortunate will have no food on their tables.

That's why we need your help. In 2009, the Putnam Valley Community Food Pantry was able to provide all of their clients with a turkey for their Thanksgiving meal.  Due to continued tough economic times, the need remains high, but with your help, we are confident we can once again meet the needs of all the clients who utilize the pantry.
 
Please help out by donating a turkey to the Putnam Valley Community Food Pantry. Please bring your donation to the pantry on Saturday, November 20th between the hours of 9:30-10am. The pantry is located at the Grace United Methodist Church, 337 Peekskill Hollow Road (around the back).
 
If you have any questions please contact Roni or Lorraine.

The Social Action Committee thanks you for your support.
