We bought the Thanksgiving Dinner. Chapman Partnership
cooked the Dinner.
Then Rotarians joined together to serve it to the residents of the Homeless Assistance Center on Thanksgiving Day. Several hundred residents at Chapman came in for a delicious lunch, the funds for which were donated by our Club Foundation.
Those who arrived early were able to assist volunteers from St. Phillips Church in the preparation of box lunches for the resident. We must've made 500 of them, complete with drinks and desserts. Once the supplies were moved out of the way from that project, we were able to set up for the main lunch. The food looked really good! We all wanted to sample but as good Rotarians, we restrained ourselves.
We were done by 1 o'clock. Plenty of time left to spend with our own holiday celebration. Plenty of reasons we all have to be grateful for the blessings we have been given and to give "Thanks" on this day.
