Union Gospel Mission opens once again for Thanksgiving
While Thanksgiving meals were delivered in the past couple of years, the COVID-19 pandemic caused the cancellations of in-person meals during the November holiday.
“Hope can begin with something as simple as a Thanksgiving meal, but it’s so much more than that,” Heidi Matthews, a marketing director at UGM, said on Thursday. “It’s about community. It’s about bringing people together. It’s about building relationships with folks to get them on a path to a new life.”
UGM had a goal of securing 1,500 turkeys to give to families across the region.
“We only hit a thousand (turkeys),” Norm Hummel, UGM’s director of food services, said on Thursday. “But a thousand families are going to have turkeys on the table, so you have to look at the cup half-full.”
