Helping Feed Hoboken Families - Thanksgiving Dinner Drive

We are hosting our annual Thanksgiving Food Drive, and this year, we have doubled our goal from before, and committed to serve 50 families with the help of St Ann's Church. The dinners are delivered, on Thanksgiving eve to the home's of local families.  This has become something that we look forward to and really work hard to meet our goal. Whatever we don't receive, we purchase ourselves to complete the dinners!
Our office will serve as a donation drop off until the weekend before when we start assembling the boxes to be set for delivery. 

If you'd like to help here is a shopping list of the items we need:
  • Turkeys! (You guessed it) 10 - 15 lbs
  • Stuffing  14 oz works best
  • Boxed Mashed Potatoes  About 15oz
  • Canned Veggies - French Cut Green Beans, Corn, Peas & Carrots 29oz
  • Canned Cut Yams - 40 oz
  • Chicken Broth - (Low sodium if you find it) 48 oz
  • Cranberry Sauce - 16 oz cans
  • Gravy Mix or Jarred Gravy
  • Mushroom Soup - 10 3/4 oz
  • Canned French Fried Onions
  • Spices - thyme, pepper, rosemary, parsley
  • Large oval roaster pan
  • Martinelli's sparkling cider - apple or grape
  • Entenmanns apple or pumpkin pies - with fresh sell by dates
Our office address is 56 Newark Street in Hoboken, NJ. We are open Mon - Fri from 10A.M. to 8P.M. and on Sat - Sun from 11A.M. to 5P.M.
If you'd like to donate a turkey, they can be dropped off the weekend of the 20th and leading up the 24th. Please check expiration dates on the goods you will purchase. And thank you for your help! There is always someone who needs a hand.
