This Thanksgiving will see a lot more families struggling to provide the ingredients for a traditional meal. Still more men, women, and children will rely on donations of food from their local food bank throughout this holiday season.
Today’s Countdown to Christmas Challenge is simply to remember those in your community 
who may be partaking of the generosity of friends and neighbors through the use of the local food bank.

Thank you – we need to put things into perspective at this time of indulgence and glitter.
Great reminder to not forget the food banks and shelters! Thanks, Jennifer!
