Judy and her staff spent yesterday morning in Highland at the Bienvenidos Food Bank, a stone’s throw from my house, helping to distribute Thanksgiving dinner packages. Each box included turkey, stuffing, sweet potatoes, bread, and other yummies. The total number of households served was in the hundreds; I’ve got a call in w/ the Food Bank and will give you a hard count ASAP. Here are a few pics; click on the thumbnail for a full-size view.
Just around the corner from the food bank, Rosa Linda’s Mexican Cafe will be holding its 23d Annual Thanksgiving Feast next Thursday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. I just got off the phone with Oscar Aguirre, who tells me the restaurant is already set with a full complement of volunteers for the event. But if you want to support the cause w/ a check, that’s always appreciated. Make the check out to Rosa Linda’s Cafe and put “Thanksgiving Feast” in the subject line; send it to 2005 West 33d Avenue, Denver CO 80211.
