Brining gifts to the Village

Marthas Village & Kitchen would
like to give a big thanks to all our volunteers who devoted their
time and energy to us during this past holiday season. We had an
enormous turnout on Thanksgiving with over 350 volunteers coming
to help prepare for and serve meals. We had such a tremendous response
and all could feel their holiday cheer!
On Christmas over 200 volunteers
came out as early as 6 a.m. to begin preparation for serving 2,100
meals. People in line carried down the street and around the block
while waiting for the hot turkey dinner with all the trimmings.
After enjoying the hearty meal, hundreds of adults and children
waited in line to receive gifts and backpacks filled with daily
essentials.
Once again, this day could not have
happened without the hard work, dedication and generous spirit of
our volunteers. We are truly blessed to have such wonderful members
from our community who are willing to donate their time to us.
Thank you, too, to all volunteers
who continue to lend a helping hand in the new year. Your time and
support are sincerely appreciated.
