With Thanksgiving arriving imminently, it is a time to think about our blessings and be thankful for all that we have. With the horrific events in the world right now, it is more important than ever to be looking at all the good people do, and be intentional about showing gratitude for all that is good in our lives. So to kick off the season of gratitude, I’m shining the spotlight on a wonderful local community initiative that makes Christmas truly special for its guests.
The Annual Westchester Community Christmas Dinner was founded on the premise that nobody should be alone or hungry on Christmas Day. This volunteer-driven charitable event has taken place every year on Christmas Day since 1994, and each guest receives a hot Christmas dinner, warm clothing, holiday gifts, and a festive welcome from caring volunteers. The community can get involved in a variety of ways, and Head Elf, and Vice-president of the board Lauren Kahn Torre joins me this week to share more.
Tune in this week to learn more about the annual Westchester Community Christmas Dinner event, the wonderful people associated with it, and more behind-the-scenes insight into the initiative. Find out how you can get involved with the event and prepare to be inspired by the impact that it creates in the community.
