This year, organizers are once again looking for volunteers to help make it happen. Volunteers are needed on Monday, November 23rd, and Tuesday, November 24th, to help with setup and cooking. On Wednesday, November 25th, volunteers are needed for plating and meal deliveries from 11am–1pm at the Ed & Jean Shifflett Community Hall at St. Monica’s. Need a Thanksgiving meal? Call 617-799-8670 by Monday, November 23rd, and leave your name, phone number, address, and number of meals needed. Want to help but can’t volunteer? Donations are also welcome. Checks can be made payable to S.B.A.W.V.C. with “Holiday Dinner” in the memo and dropped off at Deja Brew, 704 East Broadway.
