Bread and Broth seeks donations for annual Community Thanksgiving Dinner

SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. - Bread & Broth will be hosting its annual community Thanksgiving dinner on Monday, November 20. This event will be held at St. Theresa Catholic Church, Grace Hall at 1041 Lyons Avenue, South Lake Tahoe, from 4 p.m. - 6 p.m. All members of the South Lake Tahoe community are invited to attend to celebrate Thanksgiving.

Since 1989, Bread & Broth has sponsored a hot, nutritious meal for approximately 200 individuals during the Thanksgiving holiday and the tradition continues. A traditional Thanksgiving meal will be served featuring turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes and gravy, cranberry sauce, sweet potato casserole, green bean casserole, rolls, and pie for dessert. In addition, dinner guests will be given a food giveaway bag containing dairy products (eggs, butter, milk), fresh produce, bread, pastries, meat, and canned goods.

As Bread & Broth Interim Director Carol Gerard shares, “For so many of our dinner guests and their families, this is the only full course, traditional Thanksgiving meal that they will enjoy during this holiday season. Our guests are always so appreciative of the meal, the fellowship, and the bags of groceries they get to take home.”

Bread & Broth is asking for donations to help with the purchase of these food items. A donation of $25 will provide for an entire meal for a family of four; a donation of $100 will provide for four families.

Donations for the Thanksgiving meal of any amount are welcome.
