Help Gift Thanksgiving Turkeys to our Neighbors

Though food scarcity may have lessened in the past year, many of our neighbors are still struggling to put food on the table. With Thanksgiving approaching (and high prices for turkeys approaching with it), we want to lessen the burden. Last year, we asked for your help in raising money to gift Thanksgiving turkeys to 250 families in our community and this year, we are asking you to do the same.

Fund Thanksgiving Turkeys for Neighbors in Need

Thanks to the generous spirit of the community, the AACDC and SKCP were able to exceed our fundraising goal of last week!

This means we will be able to provide turkeys as a part of the weekly food distribution to families who are struggling through these times.

Thank you to each of you who donated. Continued appreciation to the Share Food Program and to Lost Bread Co. And thanks to Ellie for organizing the GoFundMe effort!

Fund Thanksgiving Turkeys for Neighbors in Need.

Over the past few months, the Arab-American Development Corps (AACDC) and the South Kensington Community Partners, (SKCP) have been distributing free food parcels to families in need at the Al-Aqsa Mosque in Philadelphia. Every Saturday we serve healthy food for 250 families in our community and due to the hardships caused by COVID-19, we will be continuing to provide food assistance to these families over the months ahead.
As Thanksgiving approaches, we want to ensure every family has a special Thanksgiving meal. We want to provide a Thanksgiving turkey to every family but our funding is tight and we do not have the additional resources to provide the turkeys.

We need YOUR help! How you can help, clickhere.
