For 24 years, a dedicated band of volunteers has served up a complete Thanksgiving dinner—from turkey and mashed potatoes to pumpkin pie – for the city’s homeless, hungry, homebound, and elderly poor; over 4,000 meals each year.
In 2010, Bender’s Tavern owner Anna Freiberg started a Christmas Meal in the same tradition for the same population.
Greensboro Urban Ministry provides the kitchen facilities and dining room, but funds to support the dinners come directly from the community. It’s easy to give—and every bit helps.
